\name{Hilbert} \alias{Hilbert} \title{Generate a Hilbert matrix} \description{ Generate the \code{n} by \code{n} symmetric Hilbert matrix. Because these matrices are ill-conditioned for moderate to large \code{n}, they are often used for testing numerical linear algebra code. } \usage{ Hilbert(n) } \arguments{ \item{n}{a non-negative integer.} } \value{ the \code{n} by \code{n} symmetric Hilbert matrix as a \code{"dpoMatrix"} object. } \seealso{the class \code{\linkS4class{dpoMatrix}}} \examples{ Hilbert(6) } \keyword{array} \keyword{algebra}
