Hi All,

I am trying to make a matrix with a particular value for all the elements
above and including diagonal and another particular value for all the
elements below diagonal. Obviously , Matrix function in Matrix package does
not work since it only allow filling by either row or column. So I am
wondering if there is a built-in function allowing me to do this ? please
help. Thanks
