Overview

In this tutorial, we will learn about the basic Octave matrix functions with examples.

Matrix Functions

Some of the functions to create a matrix are as follows:

Matrix Function	Description
eye()	To create an identity matrix
zeros()	To create a matrix with zeros(0)
ones()	To create a matrix with one (1)
diag()	To create a diagonal matrix
