<abstract><p>$ S $-$ SDDS $-$ B $ matrices is a subclass of $ P $-matrices which contains $ B $-matrices. New error bound of the linear complementarity problem for $ S $-$ SDDS $-$ B $ matrices is presented, which improves the corresponding result in <sup>[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref>]</sup>. Numerical examples are given to verify the corresponding results.</p></abstract>
