dot product in matlab

In MATLAB, you can calculate the dot product between two vectors using the dot function. The dot function calculates the sum of the element-wise multiplication of the corresponding elements in the two vectors.

Here is the syntax for using the dot function to calculate the dot product:

main.m
result = dot(vector1, vector2)
31 chars
2 lines

Where:

• vector1 and vector2 are the input vectors for which you want to calculate the dot product.
• result is the output scalar value representing the dot product of the two vectors.

Here's an example of how to calculate the dot product in MATLAB:

main.m
vector1 = [1, 2, 3];
vector2 = [4, 5, 6];

result = dot(vector1, vector2);
disp(result);
89 chars
6 lines

Output:

main.m
32
3 chars
2 lines

In this example, the dot product between vector1 and vector2 is 32.

Remember to ensure that the vectors have the same size, as the dot product is only defined for vectors of the same size.
