8. Press * to calculate YX
P
= (YX)
P
. The values of these matrix
elements are placed in the result matrix, and the descriptor of the
result matrix is placed in the X-register.
9. If you want the product in the form (YX)
C
, press | c.
Note that you don’t transform X
P
into X.
You can derive the complex elements of the matrix product YX by
recalling the elements of (XY)
P
or (YX)
C
and combining them according to
the conventions described earlier.
Example: Calculate the product ZZ
−1
, where Z is the complex matrix given
in the preceding example.
Since elements representing both matrices are already stored (Z in A and
(Z
−1
)
P
in B), skip steps 1, 3, 4, and 6.
