gallery

Purpose

Small test matrices.

Synopsis

X = gallery(3)
X = gallery(5)

Description

X = gallery(3) returns a badly conditioned 3-by-3 matrix.

X = gallery(5) returns a 5-by-5 matrix that poses an interesting eigenvalue problem. Using exact arithmetic, gallery(5) has a single eigenvalue at zero with algebraic multiplicity 5; and a single eigenvector. Numerical calculations, however, yield five distinct eigenvalues: two pairs of complex eigenvalues and a real eigenvalue.

For any input other than 3 or 5, gallery returns an empty matrix.
