upmat, upmat1¶

Purpose¶

Returns the upper portion of a matrix. upmat() returns the main diagonal and every element above. upmat1() is the same except it replaces the main diagonal with ones.

Format¶

u = upmat(x)¶

u = upmat1(x)¶

Parameters:: x (NxK matrix) – data
Returns:: u (NxK matrix) – containing the upper elements of x. The lower elements are replaced with zeros. upmat() returns the main diagonal intact. upmat1() replaces the main diagonal with ones.

Examples¶

x = { 7  2 -1,
      2  3 -2,
      4 -2  8 };

u = upmat(x);
u1 = upmat1(x);

The resulting matrices are:

    7  2 -1       1  2 -1
u = 0  3 -2  u1 = 0  1 -2
    0  0  8       0  0  1
