\title{Class "ddiMatrix" of Diagonal Numeric Matrices}
\description{The class \code{"ddiMatrix"} of numerical diagonal matrices.
  %% FIXME add more
}
\section{Objects from the Class}{
  Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{new("ddiMatrix", ...)}
  but typically rather via \code{\link{Diagonal}}.
