Method: Matrix.build

Defined in:
lib/y_support/stdlib_ext/matrix/misc.rb

.build(row_size, column_size = row_size) ⇒ Object

Creates a matrix of size row_size x column_size. It fills the values by calling the given block, passing the current row and column. Returns an enumerator if no block is given.

m = Matrix.build(2, 4) {|row, col| col - row }
  => Matrix[[0, 1, 2, 3], [-1, 0, 1, 2]]
m = Matrix.build(3) { rand }
  => a 3x3 matrix with random elements

Raises:
