y = a.';
where a
is a M x N
numerical matrix. The output y
is a numerical matrix
of the same type of size N x M
. This operator is the non-conjugating transpose,
which is different from the Hermitian operator '
(which conjugates complex values).
where y_ij
is the element in the i
th row and j
th column of the output matrix y
.
--> A = [1,2,0;4,1,-1] A = <int32> - size: [2 3] Columns 1 to 3 1 2 0 4 1 -1 --> A.' ans = <int32> - size: [3 2] Columns 1 to 2 1 4 2 1 0 -1
Here, we use a complex matrix to demonstrate how the transpose does \emph{not} conjugate the entries.
--> A = [1+i,2-i] A = <complex> - size: [1 2] Columns 1 to 2 1+ 1 i 2 -1 i --> A.' ans = <complex> - size: [2 1] Columns 1 to 1 1+ 1 i 2 -1 i
