Physicians routinely recommend a high-fiber diet that is full of roughage, or insoluble fiber, in order to keep things moving along. While this can be helpful, in some cases a high-fiber diet may actually promote intestinal infection. High-fiber diets are also high-residue diets.
The MATRIX program is designed to perform and to teach row operation algorithms on matrices. The program can work in a decimal floating-point mode in which calculations are carried out to 18 significant digits, or it can work in a fraction mode with exact rational arithmetic.
A square matrix A is a normal matrix if [A,A^(H)]=AA^(H)-A^(H)A=0, where [a,b] is the commutator and A^(H) denotes the conjugate transpose. For example, the matrix [i 0; 0 3-5i] is a normal matrix, but is not a Hermitian matrix. A matrix m 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.
