Functions and commands

mat2list

Returns the list of the terms of a matrix.

mat2list(Mtrx)

Example:

mat2list([[1,8],[4,9]])

gives

[1,8,4,9]

matpow

Calculates the nth power of a matrix by jordanization

matpow(Mtrx,Intg(n))

Example:

matpow([[1,2],[3,4]],n)

gives

[[(sqrt(33)-

3)*((sqrt(33)+5)/2)^n*-6/(-12*sqrt(33))+(-
(sqrt(33))-3)*((-(sqrt(33))+5)/2)^n*6/(-
12*sqrt(33)),(sqrt(33)-3)*((sqrt(33)+5)/
2)^n*(-(sqrt(33))-3)/(-12*sqrt(33))+(-
(sqrt(33))-3)*((-(sqrt(33))+5)/2)^n*(-
(sqrt(33))+3)/(-
12*sqrt(33))],[6*((sqrt(33)+5)/2)^n*-6/(-
12*sqrt(33))+6*((-(sqrt(33))+5)/2)^n*6/(-
12*sqrt(33)),6*((sqrt(33)+5)/2)^n*(-
(sqrt(33))-3)/(-12*sqrt(33))+6*((-
(sqrt(33))+5)/2)^n*(-(sqrt(33))+3)/(-
12*sqrt(33))]]

MAXREAL

Returns the maximum real number that the HP Prime is

capable of representing: 9.99999999999E499.

mean

Returns the arithmetic mean of a list or of the columns of a

matrix (with the optional list a list of weights).

mean(Lst||Mtrx,[Lst])

Example:

mean([1,2,3],[1,2,3])

gives

7/3

median

Returns the median of a list or of the columns of a matrix (with

the optional list a list of weights).

median(Lst||Mtrx,[Lst])

Example:

median([1,2,3,5,10,4])

gives

3.0
