MATRIX("BLOCK-DIAGONAL",order)

• $order$ is the order of the Block diagonal matrix.

Description

• This function gives matrix of order 3 which is satisfying the property of the block diagonal matrix.
• A block matrix is a matrix that is defined using smaller matrices, called blocks.
• For e.g., ${\begin{bmatrix}A&B\\C&D\\\end{bmatrix}}$

where A, B, C, and D are themselves matrices, is a block matrix.

• Two block matrices have the same shape and their diagonal blocks are square matrices, then they multiply similarly to matrix multiplication.
• In Calci, MATRIX("BLOCK-DIAGONAL") is showing the matrix of order 3 with the entry of 0.
• Users can change the order as well as the entries of that matrix.

Examples

• MATRIX("block-diagonal")

• MATRIX("BLOCK-DIAGONAL",4,5..7**2)

5 6 7	0	0	0
0	5 6 7	0	0
0	0	5 6 7	0
0	0	0	5 6 7
