\description{The \code{"TsparseMatrix"} class is the virtual class of
  all sparse matrices coded in triplet form.  Since it is a virtual class,
  no objects may be created from it.  See
  \code{showClass("TsparseMatrix")} for its subclasses.
}

    \item{\code{Dim}, \code{Dimnames}:}{from the \code{"\linkS4class{Matrix}"} class,}
    \item{\code{i}:}{Object of class \code{"integer"} - the row indices
      of non-zero entries \emph{in 0-base}, i.e., must be in
      \code{0:(nrow(.)-1)}.}
    \item{\code{j}:}{Object of class \code{"integer"} - the column
      indices of non-zero entries.  Must be the same length as slot
      \code{i} and \emph{0-based} as well, i.e., in
      \code{0:(ncol(.)-1)}.   For numeric Tsparse matrices, \code{(i,j)}
      pairs can occur more than once, see \code{\linkS4class{dgTMatrix}}.

\note{
  Most operations with sparse matrices are performed using the
  compressed, column-oriented or \code{\linkS4class{CsparseMatrix}}
  representation.  The triplet representation is convenient for
  creating a sparse matrix or for reading and writing such
  matrices.  Once it is created, however, the matrix is generally
  coerced to a \code{\linkS4class{CsparseMatrix}} for further
  operations.

  For convenience, methods for some operations such as \code{\%*\%}
  and \code{crossprod} are defined for
  \code{\linkS4class{TsparseMatrix}} objects.  These methods simply
  coerce the \code{\linkS4class{TsparseMatrix}} object to a
  \code{\linkS4class{CsparseMatrix}} object then perform the
  operation.
