4.2.1 bigintmat declarations

Syntax:

bigintmat name = bigintmat_expression ;
bigintmat name [ rows ] [ cols ] = bigintmat_expression ;
bigintmat name [ rows ] [ cols ] = list_of_int_and_bigint expressions ;
rows and cols must be positive int expressions.

Purpose:

defines a bigintmat variable.
Given a list of (big) integers, the matrix is filled up with the first row from the left to the right, then the second one and so on. If the (big-)int_list contains less than rows*cols elements, the remaining ones are set to zero; if it contains more elements, only the first rows*cols ones are considered.

Default:

empty (1x0 matrix)

Example:

bigintmat bim[4][3]=2, 5, 224553233465, 232444, 434, 0, 0, 4544232222; bim; ==> 2, 5,224553233465, ==> 232444, 434, 0, ==> 0,4544232222, 0, ==> 0, 0, 0 bim[2, 1]; ==> 232444
