Vectors and Matrices

These sections describe how vectors and matrices are entered and manipulated using Derive's built-in functions and operators. The file VECTOR.MTHI._DEZ defines functions that perform additional vector and matrix operations.

The only limitation on the number of elements in vectors and matrices is the amount of space available for storing their elements. Thus, the maximum number of elements depends strongly on the mathematical complexity of the elements. Many of the matrix operations described in these sections may dramatically increase the complexity of the resulting elements.
