# SparseFactorizationCholesky

A constant that represents Cholesky (LLᵀ) factorization.

## Declaration

```swift
var SparseFactorizationCholesky: SparseFactorization_t { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion SparseFactorizationCholesky provides a sparse counterpart to the dense Cholesky routines spotrf() and dpotrf() from LAPACK.
