Standard Deviation of a matrix

chakri 
Hello,

My R knowledge could not take me any further, so this request !

I have a matrix of dimensions (1185 X 1185). I want to calculate standard
deviation of entire matrix. 
sd function of {stats} calculates standard deviation for each row/column,
giving 1 X 1185 matrix as result. I would like to have 1 X 1 matrix as
result.

Any ideas, how to do this ?

TIA
Chakri
