uTo fill a matrix with identical values and to combine two matrices into a
single matrix[OPTN]-[MAT]-[Fill]/[Aug]

Use the Fill command to fill all the cells of an existing matrix with an identical value and the Augment command to combine two existing matrices into a single matrix.

Example 1 To fill all of the cells of Matrix A with the value 3K2(MAT)6(g)3(Fill)d,6(g)1(Mat)av(A)w1(Mat)av(A)wExample 2 To combine the following two matrices :

 

 

1

 

 

 

3

A =

 

B =

24

K2(MAT)5(Aug)1(Mat)av(A),1(Mat)al(B)w

#The two matrices you combine must have the same number of rows. An error occurs if you try to combine two matrices that have different number of rows.

#You can use Matrix Answer Memory to assign the results of the above matrix input and edit operations to a matrix variable. To do so, use the following syntax.

•Fill (n, Mat α) → Mat β

•Augment (Mat α, Mat β) → Mat γ

In the above, α, β, and γ are any variable names A through Z, and n is any value.

The above does not affect the contents of Matrix Answer Memory.
