Using the Action Menu

Snorm

Function: Returns the Frobenius norm of the matrix.

Syntax: norm (Mat [ ) ]

Example: To determine the norm of the matrix [[1, 2] [4, 5]]

Menu Item: [Action][Matrix-Calculation][norm]

Srank

Function: Finds the rank of matrix.

The rank function computes the rank of a matrix by performing Gaussian elimination on the rows of the given matrix. The rank of matrix A is the number of non-zero rows in the resulting matrix.

Syntax: rank (Matrix)

Sref

Function: Returns the row echelon form of a matrix.

Syntax: ref (Mat [ ) ]

Example: To obtain the row echelon form of the matrix [[1, 2, 3] [4, 5, 6]]

Menu Item: [Action][Matrix-Calculation][ref]

Srref

Function: Returns the reduced row echelon form of a matrix.

Syntax: rref (Mat [ ) ]

Example: To obtain the reduced row echelon form of the matrix [[2, –1, 3, 19] [1, 1, –5, –21] [0, 4, 3, 0]]

Menu Item: [Action] [Matrix-Calculation][rref]

SeigVl

Function: Returns a list that contains the eigenvalue(s) of a square matrix.

Syntax: eigVl (Mat [ ) ]

Example: To obtain the eigenvalue(s) of the matrix [[3, 4] [1, 3]]

Menu Item: [Action][Matrix-Calculation][eigVl]
