SymTridiagonal
.. SymTridiagonal(d, du)
Construct a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix from the diagonal and upper diagonal, respectively. The result is of type ``SymTridiagonal`` and provides efficient specialized eigensolvers, but may be converted into a regular matrix with :func:`full`.Examples
In the Julia programming language, the function SymTridiagonal(d, du) is used to construct a real symmetric tridiagonal matrix from the diagonal and upper diagonal elements. The resulting matrix is of type SymTridiagonal and provides efficient specialized eigensolvers. However, it can also be converted into a regular matrix using the full function.
julia> d = [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0];
julia> du = [2.0, 3.0, 4.0];
julia> matrix = SymTridiagonal(d, du)

1.0 2.0 ⋅ ⋅
2.0 2.0 3.0 ⋅
⋅ 3.0 3.0 4.0
⋅ ⋅ 4.0 4.0In this example, a symmetric tridiagonal matrix is created using the diagonal elements [1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0] and the upper diagonal elements [2.0, 3.0, 4.0]. The resulting SymTridiagonal matrix matrix is displayed.
To convert the SymTridiagonal matrix into a regular matrix, you can use the full function:
julia> full_matrix = full(matrix)

1.0 2.0 0.0 0.0
2.0 2.0 3.0 0.0
0.0 3.0 3.0 4.0
0.0 0.0 4.0 4.0The full function converts the SymTridiagonal matrix matrix into a regular matrix full_matrix of type Array{Float64,2}.
Note: The SymTridiagonal function is typically used when working with large symmetric tridiagonal matrices where the structure can be exploited for efficient computations.
