\title{ Various utility functions}
\description{
\code{vec2distm} converts a vector to a distance matrix.

\code{vec2dist} converts a vector to a \code{dist} structure.

\code{lower2upper.tri.inds} is the same as \code{lower.to.upper.tri.inds}
from package cluster. It computes an index vector for extracting or reordering a lower
triangular matrix that is stored as a contiguous vectors.

\code{diag.off}  returns a vector of off-diagonal elements of a matrix.
\code{off} specifies the distance above the main (0) diagonal.

\code{clus2memship} converts  a list whose ith element contains the indices
of objects in the ith cluster into a vector whose ith
element gives the cluster number of the ith object.

\code{memship2clus} converts  a vector whose ith
element gives the cluster number of the ith object into a list
whose ith element contains the indices
of objects in the ith cluster.
