Remarks

Use the SymmetricMatrix class to represent dense matrices whose elements are symmetrical about the main diagonal. Symmetric matrices are always square.

The components of a SymmetricMatrix are stored in a one-dimensional array of Double values. Thanks to the symmetry, only the upper or lower-triangular portion needs to be stored.

Symmetric matrices can be constructed from scratch, or they can be derived or extracted from the upper or lower triangular portion of a GeneralMatrix using one of the Extract methods.

The rows and column vectors of a symmetric matrix are of type

The SymmetricMatrix class implements algorithms using the symmetric matrix BLAS and LAPACK routines. Symmetric matrices are always stored in column-major order.

RowVector and ColumnVector, respectively.
