\title{Packed triangular dense matrices}
\description{The \code{"dtpMatrix"} class is the class of triangular,
  dense, numeric matrices in packed storage.  The \code{"dtrMatrix"}
  class is the same except in nonpacked storage.}
\section{Objects from the Class}{
  Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{new("dtpMatrix",
    ...)} or by coercion from other classes of matrices.
}
\section{Slots}{
  \describe{
    \item{\code{uplo}:}{Object of class \code{"character"}. Must be
      either "U", for upper triangular, and "L", for lower triangular.}
    \item{\code{diag}:}{Object of class \code{"character"}. Must be
      either \code{"U"}, for unit triangular (diagonal is all ones), or
      \code{"N"}; see \code{\linkS4class{triangularMatrix}}.}
    \item{\code{x}:}{Object of class \code{"numeric"}. The numeric
      values that constitute the matrix, stored in column-major order.
      For a packed square matrix of dimension \eqn{d \times d}{d * d},
      \code{length(x)} is of length \eqn{d(d+1)/2} (also when
      \code{diag == "U"}!).}
    \item{\code{Dim},\code{Dimnames}:}{The dimension (a length-2
      \code{"integer"}) and corresponding names (or \code{NULL}),
      inherited from the \code{\linkS4class{Matrix}}, see there.}
  }
}
\section{Extends}{
  Class \code{"ddenseMatrix"}, directly.
  Class \code{"triangularMatrix"}, directly.
  Class \code{"dMatrix"} and more by class \code{"ddenseMatrix"} etc, see
  the examples.
