linalg(deprecated)

 vectdim
 determine the dimension of a vector

 Calling Sequence vectdim(v) vectdim(L)

Parameters

 v - vector L - list

Description

 • Important: The linalg package has been deprecated. Use the superseding command LinearAlgebra[Dimension], instead.
 - For information on migrating linalg code to the new packages, see examples/LinearAlgebraMigration.
 • The function vectdim determines the dimension of the given vector.
 • If vectdim is given a vector v, then the dimension of (number of elements in) v is returned; if a list L is given to vectdim, then the number of elements in the list is returned.
 • The command with(linalg,vectdim) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
