AnyRectangularMatrixMultiplyTransposeBySelf Method

public virtual SymmetricMatrix MultiplyTransposeBySelf()

Public Overridable Function MultiplyTransposeBySelf As SymmetricMatrix

public:
virtual SymmetricMatrix^ MultiplyTransposeBySelf()

abstract MultiplyTransposeBySelf : unit -> SymmetricMatrix 
override MultiplyTransposeBySelf : unit -> SymmetricMatrix 

Return Value

This particular matrix multiplication is guaranteed to produce a symmetric matrix. Carrying out the multiplication using this method is not only faster than calling A.Transpose * A, but also returns the result as a SymmetricMatrix.
