matrix quotient
[out]=matdiv(x,y)
* x,y = two matrices (not of the same dimension but that are row or column compatible)
* out = x./y where x and y are row or column compatible
x1=ones(7,1);x2=[1:7]';y = lag([x1 x2],1,4);z=0.5*ones(7,1);matdiv(x,z) //returns: //! 8. 8. ! //! 2. 2. ! //! 2. 4. ! //! 2. 6. ! //! 2. 8. ! //! 2. 10. ! //! 2. 12. ! w = matdiv(x,resid); // Example taken from lad: makes the term by term division of each column of matrix x ((nxk) matrix of exogenous variables) by the (nx1) vector of absolute residuals from the ols regression of y on x. | ![]() | ![]() |
