spypart.m

SuperLU is a general purpose library for the direct solution of large, sparse, nonsymmetric systems

function spypart(S, rp, cp);
%SPYPART Spy plot with partitioning.
%   SPYPART(S,rp,cp) plots the sparsity pattern of a matrix S,
%   with lines marking a block partition described by 
%   rp (rows) and cp (columns).
%   If S is square, cp may be omitted and defaults to rp.
%
%   Partitions are specified as in the output of DMPERM:
%   There are length(rp)-1 row blocks, of sizes diff(rp), with rp(1)=1.
