In Matrix: Sparse and Dense Matrix Classes and Methods

Virtual Class "denseMatrix" of All Dense Matrices

Description

This is the virtual class of all dense (S4) matrices. It partitions into two subclasses packedMatrix and unpackedMatrix. Alternatively into the (currently) three subclasses ddenseMatrix, ldenseMatrix, and ndenseMatrix.

denseMatrix is (hence) the direct superclass of these (2+3 = 5) classes.

Extends

class "Matrix" directly.

Slots

exactly those of its superclass "Matrix", i.e., "Dim" and "Dimnames".
