Function LQ
The LQ function produces the LQ factorization of a matrix A
n × m
returning a
lower L
n × m
trapezoidal matrix, a Q
m × m
orthogonal matrix, and a P
n × n
permutation matrix, in stack levels 3, 2, and 1. The matrices A, L, Q and P
are related by P⋅A = L⋅Q. (A trapezoidal matrix out of an n×m matrix is the
equivalent of a triangular matrix out of an n ×n matrix). For example,
[[ 1, -2, 1][ 2, 1, -2][ 5, -2, 1]] LQ
produces

Function QR
In RPN, function QR produces the QR factorization of a matrix A
n × m
returning
a Q
n × n
orthogonal matrix, a R
n × m
upper trapezoidal matrix, and a P
m × m
permutation matrix, in stack levels 3, 2, and 1. The matrices A, P, Q and R
are related by A⋅P = Q⋅R. For example,
[[ 1,-2,1][ 2,1,-2][ 5,-2,1]] QR
produces
3: [[-0.18 0.39 0.90][-0.37 –0.88 0.30][-0.91 0.28 –0.30]]
2: [[ -5.48 –0.37 1.83][ 0 2.42 –2.20][0 0 –0.90]]

Matrix Quadratic Forms
A quadratic form from a square matrix A is a polynomial expression
originated from x⋅A⋅x T . For example, if we use A = [[2,1,–1][5,4,2][3,5,–
1]], and x = [X Y Z] T , the corresponding quadratic form is calculated as
