Create a matrix

modMATRIX(
  x,
  use = TRUE,
  block = FALSE,
  correlation = FALSE,
  digits = -1,
  context = "matlist",
  ...
)

Arguments

x

data for building the matrix. Data in x are assumed to be on-diagonal elements if block is FALSE and lower-triangular elements if block is TRUE
use

logical; if FALSE, all matrix elements are set to 0
block

logical; if TRUE, try to make a block matrix; diagonal otherwise
correlation

logical; if TRUE, off diagonal elements are assumed to be correlations and converted to covariances; if correlation is TRUE, then block is set to TRUE
digits

if value of this argument is greater than zero, the matrix is passed to signif (along with digits) prior to returning
context

the working context
...

passed along

Examples

modMATRIX("1 2.2 333")

#>      [,1] [,2] [,3]
#> [1,]    1  0.0    0
#> [2,]    0  2.2    0
#> [3,]    0  0.0  333
modMATRIX("1 1.1 2.2", block=TRUE)

#>      [,1] [,2]
#> [1,]  1.0  1.1
#> [2,]  1.1  2.2
modMATRIX("23 234 234 5234", use=FALSE)

#>      [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
#> [1,]    0    0    0    0
#> [2,]    0    0    0    0
#> [3,]    0    0    0    0
#> [4,]    0    0    0    0
