Remarks
This format came about as a means for storing sparse matrices. In this format, a sparse matrix is represented by two arrays of arrays. One array contains the references to the nonzero value arrays for each row of the sparse matrix. The other contains the references to the associated column index arrays.
As an example, consider the following complex sparse matrix:
