spZeros#
Purpose#
Creates a sparse matrix containing no non-zero values.
Format#
- y = spZeros(r, c)#
- Parameters:
r (scalar) – rows of output matrix.
c (scalar) – columns of output matrix.
- Returns:
y (RxC sparse matrix) – sparse matrix containing no non-zero values.
Examples#
sparse matrix y;
// Create a 4x3 sparse matrix with all elements set to 0
y = spZeros(4, 3);
// Create a dense matrix with the same values as 'y'
d = spToDense(y);
The contents of d are equal to:
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
Remarks#
Since sparse matrices are strongly typed in GAUSS, y must be defined as
a sparse matrix before the call to spZeros().
