Hans,

This typesets (pdf) fine on my system.

\starttext

\subject{Unorthodox}

Subtracting a scalar from a matrix or vector makes no sense
mathematically.
\startformula
\left(\matrix{1 & 2 & 3\cr 4 & 5 & 6}\right)-1
\stopformula
However, this is such a common occurrence, Matlab interprets this to
mean
\startformula
\left(\matrix{1 & 2 & 3\cr 4 & 5 & 6}\right)-1
=\left(\matrix{0 & 1 & 2\cr 3 & 4 & 5}\right).
\stopformula

\stoptext

However, the exact same construct in the attached file doesn't show the
equal sign when viewed in Acrobat. How come?

\subject{Matlab}

In order to use Matlab effectively, students must understand that
Matlab's basic data structure is the matrix.

\startitemize

\item Entries in rows are separated by commas.
  \starttyping
  >> u=[1,2,3]
  u =
  1            2            3    
  \stoptyping

\item Rows are terminated by semicolons.
  \starttyping
  >> v=[1;2;3]
  v =
  1      
  2      
  3   
  \stoptyping

\item Row entries can also be separated by spaces.

  \starttyping
  >> A=[1 2;3 4]
A =
      1            2      
      3            4     
  \stoptyping

\page
\subject{The Algebra of Vectors}

\startitemize
\item Vectors are added element by element.
  \starttyping
  >> u=[1,2,3]; v=[4,5,6];
>> u+v
ans =
      5            7            9     
  \stoptyping
\item Vectors are subtracted element by element.
  \starttyping
  >> u=[1;2;3]; v=[4;5;6];
>> u-v
ans =
     -3      
     -3      
     -3    
  \stoptyping
\item Scalar multiplication is performed on each element.
  \starttyping
>> u=[7,8,9];
>> 2*u
ans =
     14           16           18    
  \stoptyping

\subject{Matrices}

\startitemize

\item Matrices of equal size are added (or subtracted) element by element.
  \starttyping
  >> A=[1,2,3;4,5,6]; B=[1,1,1;2,2,2];
>> A+B
ans =
      2            3            4

\item Scalar multiplication is performed on each entry.
  \starttyping
