function a = lehmer ( m, n )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% LEHMER returns the Lehmer matrix.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    This matrix is also known as the "Westlake" matrix.
%
%  Formula:
%
%    A(I,J) = min ( I, J ) / max ( I, J )
%
%  Example:
%
%    N = 5
%
%    1/1  1/2  1/3  1/4  1/5
%    1/2  2/2  2/3  2/4  2/5
%    1/3  2/3  3/3  3/4  3/5
%    1/4  2/4  3/4  4/4  4/5
%    1/5  2/5  3/5  4/5  5/5
%
%  Properties:
%
%    A is symmetric: A' = A.
%
%    Because A is symmetric, it is normal.
%
%    Because A is normal, it is diagonalizable.
%
%    A is positive definite.
%
%    A is totally nonnegative.
%
%    The inverse of A is tridiagonal.
%
%    The condition number of A lies between N and 4*N*N.
