vech2full(x)

vechs2full(x, diagonal = 1)

`x`	A vector
`diagonal`	A value or vector of values to enter on the diagonal for `vechs2full` (default = 1)

The input consists of a vector of the elements in the lower triangle of the resulting matrix (for vech2full, including the elements along the diagonal of the matrix, as a column vector), filled column-wise. For vechs2full, the diagonal values are filled as 1 by default, alternative values can be specified using the diag argument. The inverse half-vectorization takes a vector and reconstructs a symmetric matrix such that vech2full(vech(x)) is identical to x if x is symmetric.

A symmetric matrix
