Dear Luigi and listers,

Last year, I need to write a text for a linear algebra class.
Since there are many \startmatrix … \stopmatrix and matrix calculations, I wrote a lua code which did matrix calculations and writing with a lot of help from this list. 
Using the code, I can write class materials easily. It is good enough for my purpose.
I am not good in Lua coding, so there may be many things to be checked for efficiency and for stability.

However, I attached the code because there may be someone who need it. 
It is also good thing to return what I get from the list back.

I hope that you enhance the code for better performance since you are an expert in Lua.

I always thank to this list and to developers of ConTeXt.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

A bit more readable:

matrixOP.symMatrix = function(sym, x, y, nx ,ny) -- symMatrix("a", "m", "n")
     local nx = nx or 2
     local ny = ny or nx
     local function filled(i,y)
         local mrow = { }
         for j=1,nx do
             table.insert(mrow, string.formatters["%s_{%s%s}"](sym,i,j))
         end
         table.insert(mrow,"\\cdots")
         table.insert(mrow,string.formatters["%s_{%s%s}"](sym,i,y))
         return mrow
     end
     local function dummy()
         local mrow = { }
         for j=1,nx do
             table.insert(mrow,"\\vdots")
         end
         table.insert(mrow,"\\ddots")
         table.insert(mrow,"\\vdots")
         return mrow
     end
     --
     local mm = { }
     for i=1,ny do
         table.insert(mm,filled(i,y))
     end
     table.insert(mm,dummy())
     table.insert(mm,filled(x,y))
     return mm
end

Also, variable nx, ny:

\ctxlua{matrixOP.write(matrixOP.symMatrix("a","m","n",4,8))}

Maybe this too:

local default = {
     left  = [[\left(\,]],
     right = [[\,\right)]],
}

matrixOP.write = function (t)
     context.startmatrix(default)
         for _, r in ipairs(t) do
             for _, c in ipairs(r) do
                 context.NC(c)
             end
             context.NR()
         end
     context.stopmatrix()
end

matrixOP.writeDet = function(t)
     context.startmatrix(default)
         for _, r in ipairs(t) do
             for _, c in ipairs(r) do
                 context.NC(c)
             end
             context.NR()
         end
     context.stopmatrix()
end

And:

matrixOP.rowMult = function(t, i, m) -- replace i-th row with m*(i-th row)
	for k = 1, #t[i] do t[i][k] =  m*t[i][k] end
end

matrixOP.rowMultSum = function(t, i, j, m) -- replace i-th row with i-th 
row + m*(j-th row)
	for k = 1, #t[1] do t[i][k] = t[i][k] + m*t[j][k] end
end

(no need for further speedup as it't non-critical code with neglectable 
runtime)

More Luaish (local usage):

matrixOP.transpose = function(m) -- transpose of a matrix
   local mT={}
   for j = 1, #m[1] do
	local mTrow={}
	for i=1, #m do
		local temp = m[i][j]
		table.insert(mTrow, temp)
	end
	table.insert(mT, mTrow)
   end
   return mT
end

Don't forget the local here:

matrixOP.inner = function (u, v) -- inner product of two vectors
   local temp=0
   if #u == #v then
	for i=1, #u do
		temp = temp + u[i]*v[i]
	end
   end
   return temp
end

and here:

matrixOP.product = function(m1, m2) -- product of two matrices
     local m3={}
	if #m1[1] == #m2 then
		for i = 1, #m1 do
			local mrow={}
			for j=1, #m2[1] do
				local temp = 0
				for k=1, #m1[1] do
					u = m1[i][k]*m2[k][j]
					temp = temp + u
				end
				table.insert(mrow, temp)
			end
			table.insert(m3, mrow)
		end
	end
	return m3
end

less code:

matrixOP.searchRow = function(m, i)
	local pr = #m + 1
	for k=i+1, #m do
		if m[k][i] == 0 then
			k = k+1
		else
			pr = k
			break
		end
	end
	if pr <= #m then
		return pr
	else
		return 0
	end
end

Are you sure this is ok? I've added a copy as you might want to keep the 
original table:

matrixOP.upperTri = function(m)
   local temp = table.copy(m)
   for i=1, #temp-1 do
	local pivot = temp[i][i]
	if pivot == 0 then
		local pRow = matrixOP.searchRow(temp, i)
		if pRow==0 then
			break
		end
		matrixOP.rowChange(temp, i, pRow)
		sgn=(-1)*sgn
	end
	for k=i+1, #temp do
		matrixOP.rowMultSum(temp, k, i,-temp[k][i]/temp[i][i])
	end
   end
   return temp
end

So then, watch how we use the return value of this one:

matrixOP.determinant = function(m)
	if #m ==#m[1]then
		local det = 1
		local t = matrixOP.upperTri(m)
		for i=1,#t do
			det = det * t[i][i]
		end
         return det
	else
		return 0
	end
end

> I always thank to this list and to developers of ConTeXt.

Based on the attached I can make a more efficient version that we can 
then add to the distribution (maybe you need more than this?)

Dear Hans,

Thank you for checking and enhancing.
I also got an error at “uppertri” as you point out. 
The version that I have sent is one in my notebook which may be different from that in the desktop at school. When I made a class material, it worked fine. I have to check it and send it to you again.
I appreciate you for making it more usable for ConTeXt users.

I also found that there is a matrix module for lua programming. It is nice for the calculation of matrix, but I have a difficulty to typeset the result. That’s why I try to write a code even though I am not good in Lua programming. If it is easy to take over the result into TeX, using the lua module is much efficient and correct, I think. 

Anyway, I hope that it helps to typeset matrices.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

Dear Hans,

Here is the file in my desktop.
The reason I didn’t define “sgn” in the function “uppertri” is that it is inherited from the call of “determinant’.
However, I put “sgn=1” so that the function “uppertri” works independently.

I checked the function “uppertri” and found that it worked fine. Here is a sample file.

Sometimes, I got “-0” as an entry of matrix after calculation but I couldn’t resolve it(I asked about it to this list before). 

Thank you.

Indeed - I should have checked, I tried this with the TeXLive version. With the current beta it works.

\startformula
\MATRIX{1,2,3}

Surprisingly, this is not as simple as it may seem at first glance. Some 
time ago, I had written a module to achieve this. See attached. The usage 
is:

\usemodule[simplematrix]

\definesimplematrix[MATRIX][fence=bracket]

(any predefined math-fence will work) and then:

\MATRIX{1,2,3} for row vectors and \MATRIX{1;2;3} for column vectors, and 
\MATRIX{1,2,3; 4,5,6} for matrices.

You can use \definesimplematrix[...][distance=..., align=...] to influence 
the distance and align keys of mathmatrix.

Thanks Otared,

that looks very promising. My attempt to wrap the arguments with \NC \NR fails, though.
It looks like only the first argument is used, and I am clearly missing something.
Also, I’d like to use the example you posted but without the last comma so that in the example below
I get (4,5) instead of (4,5,).

Matthias


\definemathmatrix
  [pmatrix]
  [left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}]
  

\def\docolumnvector#1{\NC#1\NR}
  
\def\columnvector#1
{\startpmatrix
\processcommalist[#1]\docolumnvector
\stoppmatrix}


\def\dorowvector#1{#1,}
  
\def\rowvector#1
{\startpmatrix
\processcommalist[#1]\dorowvector
\stoppmatrix}

\starttext

\startformula
\columnvector{1,2,3}
\stopformula

\startformula
\rowvector{4,5}
\stopformula

\stoptext

Hi,

Some time ago Wolfgang S. gave a solution to a similar problem: maybe this can help you.

%%%% begin
\def\somemacro#1%
  {\def\dosomemacro##1{Execute ##1, }%
   \processcommalist[#1]\dosomemacro}

\starttext
\somemacro{A,B,C}

\somemacro{E,F}
\stoptext
%%%% end

Best regards: OK

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 354 bytes --]

Dear All,

I would like to define a command that expands 

\vector{2,4} % or vector[2,4] if that’s easier

to

\startpmatrix
 \NC 2 \NR
 \NC 4 \NR
\stoppmatrix

and more generally

\vector{2,4,1,7}

to

\startpmatrix
 \NC 2 \NR
 \NC 4 \NR
\NC 1 \NR
\NC 7 \NR
\stoppmatrix

Any hints how to achieve this?

Thanks,

Matthias
