Detailed Description

template<class T>
class regina::NMatrixRing< T >

Represents a matrix of elements from a given ring T.

Precondition:
Type T has a default constructor and overloads the assignment (=) operator.

An element t of type T can be written to an output stream out using the standard expression out << t.

Type T provides binary operators + and * and unary operators += and *=.

Type T has a long integer constructor. That is, if a is of type T, then a can be initialised to a long integer l using a(l). Here the value 1 refers to the multiplicative identity in the ring T.

Python:
Not present, although the subclass NMatrixInt is.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T>
regina::NMatrixRing< T >::NMatrixRing unsigned long  rows,
unsigned long  cols
[inline]
 

Creates a new matrix of the given size.

All entries will be initialised using their default constructors.

Precondition:
The given number of rows and columns are both strictly positive.
Parameters:
rows the number of rows in the new matrix.
cols the number of columns in the new matrix.

template<class T>
regina::NMatrixRing< T >::NMatrixRing const NMatrix< T > &  cloneMe  )  [inline]
 

Creates a new matrix that is a clone of the given matrix.

Parameters:
cloneMe the matrix to clone.


Member Function Documentation

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::addCol unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest,
copies
[inline]
 

Adds the given number of copies of the given source column to the given destination column.

Note that copies is passed by value in case it is an element of the row to be changed.

Precondition:
The two given columns are distinct and between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
source the columns to add.
dest the column that will be added to.
copies the number of copies of source to add to dest.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::addCol unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest
[inline]
 

Adds the given source column to the given destination column.

Precondition:
The two given columns are distinct and between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
source the columns to add.
dest the column that will be added to.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::addRow unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest,
copies
[inline]
 

Adds the given number of copies of the given source row to the given destination row.

Note that copies is passed by value in case it is an element of the row to be changed.

Precondition:
The two given rows are distinct and between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
source the row to add.
dest the row that will be added to.
copies the number of copies of source to add to dest.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::addRow unsigned long  source,
unsigned long  dest
[inline]
 

Adds the given source row to the given destination row.

Precondition:
The two given rows are distinct and between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
source the row to add.
dest the row that will be added to.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::makeIdentity  )  [inline]
 

Turns this matrix into an identity matrix.

This matrix need not be square; after this routine it will have entry(r,c) equal to one if r == c and zero otherwise.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::multCol unsigned long  column,
factor
[inline]
 

Multiplies the given column by the given factor.

Note that factor is passed by value in case it is an element of the row to be changed.

Precondition:
The given column is between 0 and columns()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
column the column to work with.
factor the factor by which to multiply the given column.

template<class T>
void regina::NMatrixRing< T >::multRow unsigned long  row,
factor
[inline]
 

Multiplies the given row by the given factor.

Note that factor is passed by value in case it is an element of the row to be changed.

Precondition:
The given row is between 0 and rows()-1 inclusive.
Parameters:
row the row to work with.
factor the factor by which to multiply the given row.

template<class T>
NMatrixRing<T>* regina::NMatrixRing< T >::operator * const NMatrixRing< T > &  other  )  const [inline]
 

Multiplies this by the given matrix.

Precondition:
The number of columns in this matrix equals the number of rows in the given matrix.
Python:
Not present, even if a subclass of NMatrix is mirrored and its inherited routines are mirrored also.
Parameters:
other the matrix by which to multiply this matrix.
Returns:
a newly allocated matrix representing this * other.
