zzz_SparseM_coo_to_REXPOKIT_coo: Convert a SparseM COO matrix to a plain matrix
In nmatzke/rexpokit: R Wrappers for EXPOKIT; Other Matrix Functions

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Converts a SparseM COO-formatted matrix (an S4 object) to a plain matrix, with
column #1 = ia = i index
column #2 = ja = j index
column #3 = a = nonzero values of the matrix

1	SparseM_coo_to_REXPOKIT_coo(tmpmat_in_SparseMcoo_fmt)

tmpmat_in_SparseMcoo_fmt

A square matrix S4 object derived from SparseM's as.matrix.coo

Background: COO (coordinated list) format, is described here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_matrix#Coordinate_list_.28COO.29

In EXPOKIT and its wrapper functions, a COO-formated matrix is input as 3 vectors (first two integer, the third double):

ia = row number
ja = column number
a = value of that cell in the matrix (skipping 0 cells)

tmpmat_in_REXPOKIT_coo_fmt A cbind of ia, ja, and a

# Make a Q matrix
