Most of what a devops person does is in fact development but it is of the non value adding variety. Basically a devops person spends the vast majority of their time configuring common off the shelf software, scripting this or that, etc.
A singular matrix is a matrix which has no inverse because its determinant is zero. If you recall, the inverse of a matrix is. 1/ ad-bc multiplied by: [ d -b ] [-c a ] If ad-bc = 0, then the inverse matrix would not exist because 1/0 is undefined, and hence it would be a singular matrix. E.g.
Normal Matrix. A square matrix is a normal matrix if. where is the commutator and denotes the conjugate transpose. For example, the matrix. is a normal matrix, but is not a Hermitian matrix. A matrix can be tested to see if it is normal using Wolfram Language function: NormalMatrixQ[a_List?MatrixQ] := Module[ {b = Conjugate @ Transpose @ a}, a. b === b. a ] Normal matrices arise, for example, from a normal equation. The normal matrices are the matrices which are unitarily diagonalizable, i.e., is a normal matrix iff there exists a unitary matrix such that is a diagonal matrix. All Hermitian matrices are normal but have real eigenvalues, whereas a general normal matrix has no such restriction on its eigenvalues.
