rray_dot() works exactly like the base R function, %*%, but preserves
the rray class where applicable. For the exact details of how 1D objects
are promoted to 2D objects, see %*%.
rray_dot(x, y)
| x, y | Arrays or rrays that are either 1D or 2D. |
|---|
The result of the matrix multiplication of x and y. See %*% for the
exact details. The common type of x and y will be preserved.
Due to some peculiarities with how %*% dispatches with S3 objects, calling
%*% directly with an rray will compute the matrix multiplication correctly,
but the class will be lost. rray_dot() ensures that the rray class is
maintained.
