  2. Dot product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_product

    The scalar triple product of three vectors is defined as = = (). Its value is the determinant of the matrix whose columns are the Cartesian coordinates of the three vectors. It is the signed volume of the parallelepiped defined by the three vectors, and is isomorphic to the three-dimensional special case of the exterior product of three vectors.

  3. Row and column vectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_vectors

    The transpose (indicated by T) of any row vector is a column vector, and the transpose of any column vector is a row vector: […] = [] and [] = […]. The set of all row vectors with n entries in a given field (such as the real numbers ) forms an n -dimensional vector space ; similarly, the set of all column vectors with m entries forms an m ...

  4. Scalar multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_multiplication

    Scalar multiplication of a vector by a factor of 3 stretches the vector out. The scalar multiplications −a and 2a of a vector a. In mathematics, scalar multiplication is one of the basic operations defining a vector space in linear algebra [1] [2] [3] (or more generally, a module in abstract algebra [4] [5]).

  5. Scalar (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_(mathematics)

    A scalar is an element of a field which is used to define a vector space.In linear algebra, real numbers or generally elements of a field are called scalars and relate to vectors in an associated vector space through the operation of scalar multiplication (defined in the vector space), in which a vector can be multiplied by a scalar in the defined way to produce another vector.

  6. Array programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_programming

    The Nial example of the inner product of two arrays can be implemented using the native matrix multiplication operator. If a is a row vector of size [1 n] and b is a corresponding column vector of size [n 1]. a * b; By contrast, the entrywise product is implemented as: a .* b;

  7. Vector multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_multiplication

    In mathematics, vector multiplication may refer to one of several operations between two (or more) vectors. It may concern any of the following articles: Dot product – also known as the "scalar product", a binary operation that takes two vectors and returns a scalar quantity. The dot product of two vectors can be defined as the product of the ...

  8. Cannon's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannon's_algorithm

    In computer science, Cannon's algorithm is a distributed algorithm for matrix multiplication for two-dimensional meshes first described in 1969 by Lynn Elliot Cannon. [1] [2]It is especially suitable for computers laid out in an N × N mesh. [3]

    Product of 45 and 256. Note the order of the numerals in 45 is reversed down the left column. The carry step of the multiplication can be performed at the final stage of the calculation (in bold), returning the final product of 45 × 256 = 11520. This is a variant of Lattice multiplication.
