Ahhhhh, I get it. I was thinking HxW for some reason. Bleh. Linear algebra is like the brain scrambling olympics sometimes.

 

So the MxN * NxP rule means you'll always have a workable number of rows and columns. Okay.

 

Ahh, wait.

 

Okay, lemme write this out...

 

[a, b, c]   [j, k]
[d, e, f] * [l, m]
[g, h, i]   [n, o]

Okay, so that would be invalid because it's 3x3 * 2x3?

 

We did one where we multiplied a 3x3 by a 1x3(vector, though he didn't call it that). Is that just considered a different case since the vector can be used for each row?

 

 

Edit - Bzzzzzzzzzt. I got it. -.-

 

It would be

[aj+bl+cn, ak+bm+co]
[dj+el+fn, dk+em+fo]
[gj+hl+in, gk+hm+io]

Thanks, Ravyne.
