Matrices

18-13

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.

TRN(matrix)

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.

Transposing a
Matrix

The TRN function swaps the row-column and column-row
elements of a matrix. For instance, element 1,2 (row 1,
