matrix A + ΔA represented by the LU decomposition. It can be zero only if the product's
magnitude becomes smaller than 10
−99
(underflow).
Applications
The following programs illustrate how you can use matrix operations to solve many types of
advanced problems.
Constructing an Identity Matrix
This program creates an identity matrix I
n
in the matrix whose descriptor is in the Index
register. The program assumes that the matrix is already dimensioned to n × n. Execute the
program using G8. The final matrix will have l's for all diagonal elements and 0's for all
other elements.
