I have a Latex formatting issue. I need to display a 16x16 matrix on a page, and I'm not sure the best way to do it. The entries are fairly simple; the most complicated one looks like -(P_1+P_2), and most are zero (it is lower triangular and with <5 nonzero elements in every column. I'm not sure if putting the matrix in a very small font, just putting it in landscape format on a separate page, or giving some submatrices and writing in block format would look better. Any opinions?

If the matrix can fit inside one page then I would just put it into a figure and reference the figure. LaTeX will take care of the rest in terms of formatting.
