The"," Function: Reciprocal, Divide CD
Monadic (One-Argument) Form: Reciprocal -;'-8
The reciprocal function result is the reciprocal of the argument. The argument can be
a
numeric scalar, vector, or other array. The shape of the result is the same as that of
the argument:
O
I::'
.... ,
If the argument is an array, the function is extended to each of the elements:
B~-2 2 ~)2 . ~5
B
2 0 . ~:;
2 0 . ~,:;
'~'H
o . ~:5
o . !:j
Dyadic (Two-Argument) Form: Divide A-;'-B
The divide function result is the quotient when argument.A is divided by argument B,
The arguments can be numeric scalars, vectors, or other arrays. The arguments must
be the same shape unless one of the arguments is a scalar or a single-element array.
Arguments of
the same shape have the same shape result:
,.,
,:.,
:I. • ~5
If one argument is a scalar or a single-element array, the shape of the result is the
same as that of the other input argument. The single element is applied to every
element of the l)1ultielement array:
B~2 2p1 10 20 :1.00
