\title{Assign Matrix to a pdMat Object}
\usage{
\method{matrix}{pdMat}(object) <- value
}
\alias{matrix<-.pdMat}
\alias{matrix<-.pdBlocked}
\arguments{
\item{object}{an object inheriting from class \code{pdMat}, representing
a positive definite matrix.}
\item{value}{a matrix with the new values to be assigned to the
positive-definite matrix represented by \code{object}. Must have the
same dimensions as \code{as.matrix(object)}.}
}
\description{
The positive-definite matrix represented by \code{object} is replaced
by \code{value}. If the original matrix had row and/or column names,
the corresponding names for \code{value} can either be \code{NULL}, or
a permutation of the original names.
}
\value{
a \code{pdMat} object similar to \code{object}, but with its
coefficients modified to produce the matrix in \code{value}.
