<p>A diagonal matrix is defined as a matrix that has zero entries outside the main
diagonal; that is,
<code class="code">D(i,j) == 0</code> if <code class="code">i != j</code>.
Most often, square diagonal matrices are considered; however, the definition
can equally be applied to non-square matrices, in which case we usually speak
of a rectangular diagonal matrix.
</p>
<p>A permutation matrix is defined as a square matrix that has a single element
equal to unity in each row and each column; all other elements are zero. That
is, there exists a permutation (vector)
<code class="code">p</code> such that <code class="code">P(i,j) == 1</code> if <code class="code">j == p(i)</code> and
<code class="code">P(i,j) == 0</code> otherwise.
</p>
<p>Octave provides special treatment of real and complex rectangular diagonal
matrices, as well as permutation matrices. They are stored as special objects,
using efficient storage and algorithms, facilitating writing both readable and
efficient matrix algebra expressions in the Octave language. The special
treatment may be disabled by using the functions <em class="dfn">optimize_diagonal_matrix</em>
and <em class="dfn">optimize_permutation_matrix</em>.
