☜	$%MTXUNIT^MATH M[UMPS] by Example					☞

Approved for inclusion in a future M[UMPS] language standard as part of the library for Matrix Mathematics.

This function creates a (sparse) unit matrix.

Set X=$%MTXUNIT^MATH(.RESULT,4) will create a "full" 4x4 unit matrix:

1   0   0   0
0   1   0   0
0   0   1   0
0   0   0   1

Set X=$%MTXUNIT^MATH(.RESULT,4,1) will create a "sparse" 4x4 unit matrix: (a cell containing "#" means no defined value):

1   #   #   #
#   1   #   #
#   #   1   #
#   #   #   1

The MDC has approved code to approximate the return value of this function. Implementors are encouraged to provide more accurate and efficient code).
