!>    SLATM2 returns the (I,J) entry of a random matrix of dimension
!>    (M, N) described by the other parameters. It is called by the
!>    SLATMR routine in order to build random test matrices. No error
!>    checking on parameters is done, because this routine is called in
!>    a tight loop by SLATMR which has already checked the parameters.
!>
!>    Use of SLATM2 differs from SLATM3 in the order in which the random
!>    number generator is called to fill in random matrix entries.
!>    With SLATM2, the generator is called to fill in the pivoted matrix
!>    columnwise. With SLATM3, the generator is called to fill in the
!>    matrix columnwise, after which it is pivoted. Thus, SLATM3 can
!>    be used to construct random matrices which differ only in their
!>    order of rows and/or columns. SLATM2 is used to construct band
!>    matrices while avoiding calling the random number generator for
!>    entries outside the band (and therefore generating random numbers
!>
!>    The matrix whose (I,J) entry is returned is constructed as
!>    follows (this routine only computes one entry):
!>
!>      If I is outside (1..M) or J is outside (1..N), return zero
!>         (this is convenient for generating matrices in band format).
!>
!>      Generate a matrix A with random entries of distribution IDIST.
!>
!>      Set the diagonal to D.
!>
!>      Grade the matrix, if desired, from the left (by DL) and/or
!>         from the right (by DR or DL) as specified by IGRADE.
!>
!>      Permute, if desired, the rows and/or columns as specified by
!>         IPVTNG and IWORK.
!>
!>      Band the matrix to have lower bandwidth KL and upper
!>         bandwidth KU.

!>           On entry specifies the sparsity of the matrix
!>           if sparse matrix is to be generated.
!>           SPARSE should lie between 0 and 1.
!>           A uniform ( 0, 1 ) random number x is generated and
!>           compared to SPARSE; if x is larger the matrix entry
!>           is unchanged and if x is smaller the entry is set
!>           to zero. Thus on the average a fraction SPARSE of the
!>           entries will be set to zero.
