Singular value decomposition
To understand the operation of Function SNRM, we need to introduce the
concept of matrix decomposition. Basically, matrix decomposition involves
the determination of two or more matrices that, when multiplied in a certain
order (and, perhaps, with some matrix inversion or transposition thrown in),
produce the original matrix. The Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is such
T
that a rectangular matrix A
is written as A
= U
⋅S
⋅V

diagonal).
The rank of a matrix can be determined from its SVD by counting the number
of non-singular values. Examples of SVD will be presented in a subsequent
section.

Functions RNRM and CNRM

Function RNRM returns the Row NoRM of a matrix, while function CNRM
returns the Column NoRM of a matrix. Examples,
Row norm and column norm of a matrix
The row norm of a matrix is calculated by taking the sums of the absolute
values of all elements in each row, and then, selecting the maximum of these
sums. The column norm of a matrix is calculated by taking the sums of the
absolute values of all elements in each column, and then, selecting the
maximum of these sums.
