\name{matrix.csc-class}
\title{Class "matrix.csc" - Sparse Matrices in [C]ompressed [S]parse [C]olumn Format}
\docType{class}
\alias{matrix.csc-class}
\description{
A class for sparse matrices stored in compressed sparse column ('csc')
format.
}
\section{Objects from the Class}{
Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{new("matrix.csc", ...)}.
}
\section{Slots}{
\describe{
\item{\code{ra}:}{Object of class \code{numeric}, a real array of nnz elements containing the non-zero
elements of A, stored in column order. Thus, if i<j, all elements
of column i precede elements from column j. The order of elements
within the column is immaterial.}
\item{\code{ja}:}{Object of class \code{integer}, an integer array of nnz elements containing the row
indices of the elements stored in `ra'.}
\item{\code{ia}:}{Object of class \code{integer}, an integer array of n+1 elements containing pointers to
the beginning of each column in the arrays `ra' and `ja'. Thus
`ia[i]' indicates the position in the arrays `ra' and `ja'
where the ith column begins. The last, (n+1)st, element of `ia'
indicates where the n+1 column would start, if it existed.}
\item{\code{dimension}:}{Object of class \code{integer}, dimension of the matrix }
}
}
\section{Methods}{
\describe{
