Performs matrix right division.
B /^ A
B |
- |
A matrix. |
A |
- |
A non-singular, usually square matrix. |
A matrix that numerically approximates
A = {{0, 1, 2},
{1, 0, 1},
{2, 2, 1}}
x = {{3, 5, 4},
{1, 9, 2},
{3, 2, 1}}
B = x *^ A
B /^ A == {{3, 5, 4},
{1, 9, 2},
{3, 2, 1}}
If A, B, and x are matrices, such that x *^ A = B, then B /^ A returns the matrix x.
B /^ A calculates (A’ ^ B’)’ as an approximation to
For scalars B /^ A == B / A. For example:
10 /^ 2 = 10 / 2 == 5
See DADiSP/MatrixXL to significantly optimize /^.
