vdot(a, b, /)
The vdot(a, b) function handles complex numbers differently than dot(a, b). If the first argument is complex the complex conjugate of the first argument is used for the calculation of the dot product.
Note that vdot
handles multidimensional arrays differently than dot
: it does not perform a matrix product, but flattens input arguments to 1-D vectors first. Consequently, it should only be used for vectors.
If a is complex the complex conjugate is taken before calculation of the dot product.
Second argument to the dot product.
Dot product of a and b. Can be an int, float, or complex depending on the types of a and b.
Return the dot product of two vectors.
dot
Return the dot product without using the complex conjugate of the first argument.
>>> a = np.array([1+2j,3+4j])
... b = np.array([5+6j,7+8j])
... np.vdot(a, b) (70-8j)
>>> np.vdot(b, a) (70+8j)
Note that higher-dimensional arrays are flattened!
>>> a = np.array([[1, 4], [5, 6]])
... b = np.array([[4, 1], [2, 2]])
... np.vdot(a, b) 30
>>> np.vdot(b, a) 30
>>> 1*4 + 4*1 + 5*2 + 6*2 30See :
Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.
Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)
SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.
All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
