In other words, in a diagonal matrix is any matrix in which the only potentially non-zero entries are one the main diagonal.  Any entry off the main diagonal must be zero and note that it is possible to have one or more of the main diagonal entries be zero.
Note as well that a diagonal matrix can be thought of as both an upper triangular matrix and a lower triangular matrix.
The final kind of matrix that we want to look at in this section is that of a symmetric matrix.  In fact we’ve already seen these in a previous section we just didn’t have the space to investigate them in more detail in that section so we’re going to do it here.

A unit triangular matrix is a triangular matrix in which all the diagonal elements have a value of one; that is:
When an upper-triangular matrix is stored in upper-triangular-packed storage mode, the upper triangle of the matrix is stored, including the diagonal, in a one-dimensional array.
To calculate the location of each element of the triangular matrix in the array, use the technique described in "Upper-Packed Storage Mode".
