Time Narration
00.02 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Matrix Operations.
00.06 At the end of this spoken tutorial, you will be able to:
00.10 Access the elements of Matrix
00.13 Determine the determinant, inverse and eigen values of a matrix.
00.18 Define special matrices.
00.22 Perform elementary row operations.
00.25 Solve the system of “linear equations”.
00.28 The prerequisites are
00.30 Scilab should be installed on your system.
00.34 You should have listened to the Spoken Tutorial: Getting started with Scilab and 'Vector Operations.
00.42 I am using Windows 7 operating system and Scilab 5.2.2 for demonstration.
00.50 Start Scilab by double-clicking on the Scilab icon present on your Desktop.
00.59 It is suggested that the user should practice this tutorial in Scilab simultaneously while pausing the video at regular intervals of time.
01.08 Recall that in the Spoken Tutorial, 'Vector Operations',
01.12 matrix E was defined as E is equal to open square bracket 5 space 19 space 15 semicolon 8 space 22 space 36 close the square bracket and press enter
01.37 Let us now see how to address individual elements of a matrix, separately.
01.42 To access the element in the first row and second column, type E into bracket 1,2 and press enter
01.56 It is easy to extract an entire row or an entire column of a matrix in Scilab .
02.03 For example, first row of E can be obtained using the following command: E1 = E into bracket 1 comma colon and press enter
02.23 The command returns all the elements of the first row in the order of their appearance in the row.
02.30 Colon, when used alone, refers to all the elements of row or column, depending upon whether it appears as a first or a second entry respectively inside the bracket.
02.44 Also, any subset of a matrix can be extracted using a colon (“:”).
02.49 For example, the set of elements starting from second to third columns of E can be obtained using the following command:
03.00 E2 = E of colon comma 2 colon 3 close the bracket and press enter
03.18 In the above, the second entry in the bracket, that is, "2 colon 3" makes a reference to elements from column 2 to column 3.
03.28 If the size of the matrix is not known $ (dollar ) symbol can be used to extarct the last row or column of that matrix.
03.38 For example to extract all rows of the last column of the matrix E, we will type
03.46 Elast col= E into brackets colon comma dollar sign close the bracket and press enter
04.06 Now, let us learn how to calculate the determinant of a square matrix using the command “det”
04.13 Recall that in the Spoken Tutorial, Vector Operations, we had defined A as
04.19 A = open square bracket 1 space 2 space minus 1 semicolon -2 space - 6 space 4 semicolon -1 space -3 space 3 close the square bracket and press enter
04.50 Let us calculate the determinant of A by the command det of A and press Enter.
05.00 To calculate the inverse and the eigenvalues of a matrix, the commands, “inv” and “spec” respectively, can be used.
05.09 For example: inv of A gives the inverse of A and spec of A gives the eigen values of matrix A
05.29 See 'help spec' to see how eigenvectors can also be obtained using this command.
05.35 Square or cube of a square matrix A can be calculated by simply typing A square or A cube respectively.
05.52 A caret symbol is used to raise a matrix to power, like in ordinary arithmetic operations. In our keyboard, it is obtained by pressing shift+6.
06.05 Please pause the tutorial now and attempt the exercise number one given with the video.
06.17 Certain special matrices can also be created in Scilab:
06.24 For example a matrix of zeros with 3 rows and 4 columns can be created using “zeros” command
06.36 zeros into bracket 3 comma 4 and press enter
06.47 A matrix of all ones can be created with “ones” command as follows
06.53 ones into bracket 2 comma 4 gives a matrix of all ones
07.01 It is easy to create an identity matrix using the “eye” command:
07.07 ' e y e' of 4 comma 4 gives a 4 by 4 identity matrix
07.16 A user may need a matrix consisting of pseudo random numbers. It can be generated using the “rand” command as follows:
07.25 p=rand into bracket 2, 3 and press enter
07.39 In linear systems, one of the important sets of operations a user carries out on matrices are the elementary row and column operations.
07.55 These operations involve executing row operations on a matrix to make entries below a nonzero number, zero. This can be done easily in Scilab.
08.07 Recall that in the Spoken Tutorial,Vector Operations, we had defined the matrix P as follows.
08.17 P = open square bracket 1 space 2 space 3 semicolon 4 space 11 space 6 close the square bracket and press enter
08.33 Let us consider an example where the element in the second row, first column is to be transformed to zero using elementary row and column operation.
08.44 The operation can be executed by multiplying the first row by 4 and subtracting it from the second row as in the following command:
08.56 P into bracket 2 comma colon is equal to P into bracket 2 comma colon minus 4 multiplied by P into bracket 1 comma colon and press enter
09.28 The procedure can be extended to larger systems and to other forms of elementary column operations.
09.35 Rows and columns can be easily appended to matrices.
09.39 For example, to append a row containing the elements [5 5 -2] to P, the following command is used:
09.48 T = open square bracket P semicolon, open another square bracket write down the elements 5 5 -2 close both the square bracket and press enter
10.14 The semicolon after P states that anything after it should go to the next row. '
10.20 This is expected in the way a matrix is defined.
10.24 As an exercise, please pause here and check if the brackets around the new row, in the command just executed, are really required.
10.34 Matrix notations are used while solving equations.
10.40 Let us solve the following set of linear equations:
10.44 x1 + 2 x2 − x3 = 1
10.48 −2 x1 − 6 x2 + 4 x3 = −2
10.54 and − x1 − 3 x2 + 3 x3 = 1
11.00 The above set of equations can be written in the Ax = b form.
11.05 The solution is then given as inverse of A times b
11.11 Let us solve the set of equations.
11.15 A is defined as A = open square bracket 1 space 2 space -1 semicolon -2 space -6 space 4 semicolon -1 space -3 space 3 close the square bracket and press enter
11.46 B can be defined as b is equal toSquare bracket 1 semicoln -2 semicolon 1 close the square bracket and press enter
12.04 The solution, x, can be obtained using x = inv of A multiplied by b
12.19 It is worth noting that it is a small letter 'i' in the command, 'inv'.
12.26 Alternatively, the same result can be achieved using a backslash operation in Scilab.
12.33 Lets do this in Scilab x is equal to A backslash b and press enter.
12.44 It gives the same result. Type "help backslash" and "help inv" in Scilab to know more about individual advantages and disadvantages.
12.55 The integrity of the solution can be verified by back substitution, that is, by calculating Ax-b:
13.05 A multiplied by x minus b
13.10 The above exercise verifies the result achieved earlier.
13.14 It is possible that in some systems the above verification exercise may not yield a matrix with exact zeros as its elements due to intermediate floating point operations.
13.27 However, one will indeed get a very small number, typically of the order of 10 raised to -16
13.34 Please pause the tutorial now and attempt exercise number two given with the video.
13.49 This brings us to the end of this spoken tutorial on Matrix Operation.
13.53 There are many other functions in Scilab which will be covered in other spoken tutorials.
13.59 Keep watching the Scilab links.
