norm: Matrix and vector norms.

Description

Compute the norm of a vector or matrix, as determined by the type.

Usage

maxeig(x)
"maxeig"(x)
norm(x, type, ...)
"norm"(x)
"norm"(x, type = "One")

Arguments

x
madness object.
type
character string, specifying the type of matrix norm to be computed. A character indicating the type of norm desired.
"O", "o" or "1"
specifies the one norm, (maximum absolute column sum);

"I" or "i"
specifies the infinity norm (maximum absolute row sum);

"F" or "f"
specifies the Frobenius norm (the Euclidean norm of x treated as if it were a vector);

"M" or "m"
specifies the maximum modulus of all the elements in x; and

"2"
specifies the “spectral” or 2-norm, which is the largest singular value (svd) of x.

The default is "O". Only the first character of type[1] is used.

...
further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Value

the matrix norm, a non-negative number.
