<a name="index-matrices_002c-range_002dchecking"></a>
<a name="index-range_002dchecking-for-matrices"></a>
<p>The functions for accessing the elements of a matrix use the same range
checking system as vectors.  You can turn off range checking by recompiling
your program with the preprocessor definition
<code>GSL_RANGE_CHECK_OFF</code>.
</p>
<p>The elements of the matrix are stored in “C-order”, where the second
index moves continuously through memory.  More precisely, the element
accessed by the function <code>gsl_matrix_get(m,i,j)</code> and
<code>gsl_matrix_set(m,i,j,x)</code> is 
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">m->data[i * m->tda + j]
</pre></div>
<p>where <var>tda</var> is the physical row-length of the matrix.
</p>

<dd><p>This function returns the <em>(i,j)</em>-th element of a matrix
<var>m</var>.  If <var>i</var> or <var>j</var> lie outside the allowed range of 0 to
<em><var>n1</var>-1</em> and 0 to <em><var>n2</var>-1</em> then the error handler is invoked and 0
is returned.  An inline version of this function is used when <code>HAVE_INLINE</code> is defined.

0 to <em><var>n1</var>-1</em> and 0 to <em><var>n2</var>-1</em> then the error handler is invoked
and a null pointer is returned.  Inline versions of these functions are used when <code>HAVE_INLINE</code> is defined.
