| 5164 | 81 With full matrices, knowledge of the point of an element of the matrix |
| 82 within the matrix is implied by its position in the computers memory. | |
| 83 However, this is not the case for sparse matrices, and so the positions | |
| 84 of the non-zero elements of the matrix must equally be stored. | |
| 85 | |
| 86 An obvious way to do this is by storing the elements of the matrix as | |
| 5506 | 87 triplets, with two elements being their position in the array |

602 and is equally a full matrix. The case of @code{@var{s} ./ @var{s}} |
