ApCoCoA-1:Num.LeastSquaresQR

Num.LeastSquaresQR

Calculates the least squares solution to the general problem Ax=b

Syntax

Num.LeastSquaresQR(Mat:MAT, Vec:MAT):MAT;

Description

Please note: The function(s) explained on this page is/are using the ApCoCoAServer. You will have to start the ApCoCoAServer in order to use it/them.

Calculates the least squares solution to the general problem Ax=b, when there is no exact solution. The matrix Mat must have the same number of rows as Vec.

The QR decomposition of Mat is used to find the solution.

• @param Mat Matrix A

• @param Vec Vector B in matrix form.

• @return The least squares solution to Ax=b.

Example

Dec(Num.LeastSquaresQR([[1,1],[0,1],[1,1]],[[0],[1],[0]]),2);
