Actually, I got fooled. The examples and description are what is known as storage by diagonals not skyline storage... will have to move it. Here it is stored below for now. Jmath66604:05, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
For symmetrical matrices (with zero based indexing):
For unsymmetrical matrices (with zero based indexing):
For a symmetric 6 by 6 matrix A with a right bandwidth of 2 turns into the 6 by 3 matrix A_{skyline}.
Matrix A in original format:
Matrix A_{skyline} in skyline format:
For an unsymmetrical 6 by 6 tridiagonal matrix B with left and right band widths of 1 turns into the 6 by 3 matrix B_{skyline}.
Matrix B in original format:
