qrsol#

Purpose#

Computes the solution of \(Rx = b\) where \(R\) is an upper triangular matrix.

Format#

x = qrsol(b, R)#
Parameters:
  • b (PxL matrix) – data

  • R (PxP matrix) – upper triangular matrix

Returns:

x (PxL matrix) – solution of \(Rx = b\) where \(R\) is an upper triangular matrix.

Remarks#

qrsol() applies a backsolve to \(Rx = b\) to solve for x. Generally R will be the R matrix from a QR factorization. qrsol() may be used, however, in any situation where R is upper triangular.
