SPECNORM

Spectral Norm of matrix.

 

SPECNORM(matrix)

SPECRAD

Spectral Radius of a square matrix.

 

SPECRAD(matrix)

SVD

Singular Value Decomposition. Factors an m × n matrix

 

into two matrices and a vector:

 

{[[m × m square orthogonal]],[[n × n square orthogonal]],

 

[real]}.

 

SVD(matrix)

SVL

Singular Values. Returns a vector containing the singular

 

values of matrix.

 

SVL(matrix)

TRACE

Finds the trace of a square matrix. The trace is equal to

 

the sum of the diagonal elements. (It is also equal to the

 

sum of the eigenvalues.)

 

TRACE(matrix)

TRN

Transposes matrix. For a complex matrix, TRN finds the

 

conjugate transpose.

Examples

Identity Matrix

You can create an identity matrix with the IDENMAT

 

function. For example, IDENMAT(2) creates the 2×2

 

identity matrix [[1,0],[0,1]].

 

You can also create an identity matrix using the

 

MAKEMAT (make matrix) function. For example, entering

 

MAKEMAT(I¼J,4,4) creates a 4 × 4 matrix showing the

 

numeral 1 for all elements except zeros on the diagonal.

 

The logical operator ¼ returns 0 when I (the row number)

 

and J (the column number) are equal, and returns 1 when

 

they are not equal.
