Description

• This function shows the Vector Direct product.
• The third type of vector multiplication is called the direct product, and is written AB.

• Multiplying one vector by another under the direct product gives a tensor result.
• The rectangular components of the direct product may be found by matrix multiplication: one multiplies the column vector A by the transpose of B, which gives a 3X3 matrix:
