Matrix multiplication in skill/ocean

david73

I am writing a calibration for my circuit, and it involves taking multiple measurements and multiplying by a matrix and using the results to make the fixes for the next iteration

Is there an easy implementation of matrix multiplication in skill, or do I have to write it myself?

  • There's nothing built-in to do this. There were some internal (private) functions to do this, but we decided many years ago not to make them public because they are entirely written in SKILL and not very efficient (for small matrices they would have been fine but the challenge with making them public is that there would potentially be an expectation for them to work well for large matrices too).

    You'll need to implement your own functions to do this. Out of interest, what dimension of matrix are you talking about? 

    Regards,

    Thanks 

    I am working with a small 2D matrix, 8x8, so your internal functions probably would have worked for me, but they also aren't the hardest to implement. Unless you want to privately send me the functions ;). I already have a folder with a bunch of functions with the prefix "ab".
