Quiz passed! The instructor's passing criteria was 4 out of 5.

1.

Suppose I first execute the following Octave commands:


A = [1 2; 3 4; 5 6];
B = [1 2 3; 4 5 6];

Which of the following are then valid Octave commands? Check all that apply and assume all options
are written in an Octave command. (Hint: A' denotes the transpose of A.)

Let A be a 10x10 matrix and x be a 10-element vector. Your friend wants to compute the product Ax
and writes the following code:
v = zeros(10, 1);
for i = 1:10
for j = 1:10
v(i) = v(i) + A(i, j) * x(j);
end
end

How would you vectorize this code to run without any FOR loops? Check all that apply.

4.

Say you have two column vectors v and w , each with 7 elements (i.e., they have dimensions 7x1).
Consider the following code:
z = 0;
for i = 1:7
z = z + v(i) * w(i)
end

Which of the following vectorizations correctly compute z? Check all that apply.

In Octave, many functions work on single numbers, vectors, and matrices. For example, the sin
function when applied to a matrix will return a new matrix with the sin of each element. But you have to
be careful, as certain functions have dierent behavior. Suppose you have an 7x7 matrix X . You want
to compute the log of every element, the square of every element, add 1 to every element, and divide
every element by 4. You will store the results in four matrices, A, B, C, D. One way to do so is the
following code:
for i = 1:7
for j = 1:7
A(i, j) =
B(i, j) =
C(i, j) =
D(i, j) =
end
end

log(X(i, j));
X(i, j) ^ 2;
X(i, j) + 1;
X(i, j) / 4;

Which of the following correctly compute A, B, C, or D ? Check all that apply.
