== Multiply row vector by matrix == | == Multiply row vector by matrix == | ||
This is to taking the dot product as matrix*matrix multiplication is to matrix*vector multiplication. You take the dot product of the row vector with each successive column of the matrix, and write the result as another row vector. Any matrix*vector operation can be rewritten in this format by swapping rows and columns; the reason these are distinguished is because it is conventional to represent certain things as column vectors and different things as row vectors (i.e. monzos and vals); in this case, vectors represented as rows are called "covectors". | |||
