I'm  having some problems computing a matrix being symmetric on both

Does anyone know a way to get from this matrix


M <- matrix(c(1,0,0,0,2,7,0,0,3,4,0,0,6,0,0,0), ncol=4)

to this one

M_final <- matrix(c(1,2,3,6,2,7,4,3,3,4,7,2,6,3,2,1), ncol=4)

Hi.

Try the following.

 M[row(M) > col(M)] <- t(M)[row(M) > col(M)]
 n <- nrow(M)
 M[row(M) + col(M) > n + 1] <- M[n:1, n:1][row(M) + col(M) > n + 1]
 all(M == M_final)

 [1] TRUE

How about?

> M[3:4, ] <- rev(M[1:2,])
> M
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,]    1    2    3    6
[2,]    2    7    4    3
[3,]    3    4    7    2
[4,]    6    3    2    1

     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
[2,] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
[3,] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
[4,] TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE



Hope this helps.
