MATLAB - Linear Algebra
Which MATLAB command correctly transposes matrix M without changing the original matrix?
Which MATLAB command correctly transposes matrix M without changing the original matrix?
easy📝 Conceptual Q2 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand assignment and transpose
Using N = M' creates a new matrix N as the transpose of M, leaving M unchanged.Step 2: Check other options
M = transpose(M); changes M by assigning transpose back to M, M = M'; overwrites M, transpose(M); computes transpose but does not assign it.Final Answer:
Assign transpose to a new variable N without changing M -> Option BQuick Check:
Assign transpose to new variable = N = M' [OK]
Quick Trick: Use new variable to keep original matrix unchanged [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Overwriting original matrix unintentionally
- Not assigning transpose result
- Using transpose without assignment
