GSL_Matrix.new(argv)
GSL_Matrix.alloc(argv)
These methods create a GSL_Matrix object which contains matrix elements. One can initialize a matrix with arrays,
m = GSL_Matrix::new([1, 2, 3], [6, 5, 4], [7, 8, 1]) -> a 3x3 matrix is created, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
With an array and rows&cols,
m = GSL_Matrix::new([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], 3, 3)
GSL_Matrix#set(argv)
This method sets elements of the matrix in various manners.
with two integers and a number,
m.set(1, 2, 3.2) -> the (1, 2) element is set to 3.2
with arrays,
m.set([6, 5, 6], [4, 5, 7], [8, 5, 21]) -> 6 5 6 4 5 7 8 5 21
with an array and sizes,
m.set([4, 5, 6, 8, 98, 6, 4, 3, 1], 3, 3) -> 4 5 6 8 98 6 4 3 1
GSL_Matrix#get(i, j)
This method returns the (i,j)th element of the reciever matrix self.
GSL_Matrix#set_all(x)
This method sets all the elements of the reciever matrix to the value x.
GSL_Matrix#set_zero
This method sets all the elements of the matrix to zero.
GSL_Matrix#set_identity
This method sets the elements of the reciever matrix to the corresponding elements of the identity matrix, i.e. a unit diagonal with all off-diagonal elements zero. This applies to both square and rectangular matrices.
GSL_Matrix#fprintf(io, format)
This method writes the matrix elements line-by-line to the io object io using the format specifier format.
GSL_Matrix#fscanf(io)
This method reads formatted data from the io object io into the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#row(i)
This method returns a vector of the i-th row of the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#column(i)
GSL_Matrix#col(i)
These methods return a vector of the j-th column of the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#diagonal
This method returns a vector of the diagonal of the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#set_row(i, v)
This method copies the elements of the vector v into the i-th row of the matrix. The length of the vector must be the same as the length of the row.
GSL_Matrix#set_col(j, v)
This method copies the elements of the vector v into the j-th column of the matrix. The length of the vector must be the same as the length of the column.
GSL_Matrix#swap_rows!(i, j)
This method exchanges the i-th and j-th rows of the matrix in-place.
GSL_Matrix#swap_rows(i, j)
Same as GSL_Matrix#swap_rows!(i, j), but not modifies the reciever, and returns a new matrix.
GSL_Matrix#swap_columns!(i, j)
GSL_Matrix#swap_columns(i, j)
This method exchanges the i-th and j-th columns of the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#swap_rowcol!(i, j)
GSL_Matrix#swap_rowcol(i, j)
This method exchanges the i-th row and j-th column of the matrix. The matrix must be square for this operation to be possible.
GSL_Matrix#transpose!
This method returns a matrix of a transpose of the reciever matrix.
GSL_Matrix#transpose
This method replaces the reciever matrix by its transpose by copying the elements of the matrix in-place. The matrix must be square for this operation to be possible.
GSL_Matrix#add(b)
GSL_Matrix#add!(b)
This method adds the elements of matrix b to the elements of the reciever matrix. The two matrices must have the same dimensions.
GSL_Matrix#sub!(b)
GSL_Matrix#sub(b)
This method subtracts the elements of matrix b from the elements of the reciever matrix. The two matrices must have the same dimensions.
GSL_Matrix#mul_elements!(b)
GSL_Matrix#mul_elements(b)
This method multiplies the elements of the reciever matrix by the elements of matrix b. The two matrices must have the same dimensions.
GSL_Matrix#div_elements!(b)
GSL_Matrix#div_elements(b)
This method divides the elements of the reciever matrix by the elements of matrix b. The two matrices must have the same dimensions.
GSL_Matrix#scale!(x)
GSL_Matrix#scale(x)
This method multiplies the elements of the reciever matrix by the constant factor x.
GSL_Matrix#add_constant!(a)
GSL_Matrix#add_constant(a)
This method adds the constant value x to the elements of the matrix.
GSL_Matrix#max
GSL_Matrix#min
These methods return the max/min value in the reciever matrix.
GSL_Matrix#minmax
This method returns a two elements array [min, max], which contains the minimum and the maximum values in the reciever matrix.
GSL_Matrix#max_index
GSL_Matrix#min_index
These methods return the index of the max/min value in the reciever matrix.
GSL_Matrix#minmax_index
This method returns a two elements array [imin, imax], which contains the indices of the minimum and the maximum value in the reciever matrix.
