Does SVB Support Matrix Operations?
STATISTICA Visual Basic contains a large number of designated matrix and statistical functions, which make the SVB environment ideal for prototyping algorithms or for developing custom statistical procedures. The matrix and statistical functions are documented in detail in the section on the STATISTICA Matrix Function Library (see the Electronic Manual). One major advantage of using the STATISTICA library of matrix functions, instead of writing these functions “by hand” in Visual Basic, is that the former will evaluate much faster. For example, when you want to invert large matrices, the MatrixInverse function will perform the actual matrix inversion using the highly optimized (compiled) algorithms of STATISTICA. Include file: STB.svx. To provide convenient access to the matrix functions without requiring you to pass explicitly the dimensions of the arrays that are being passed, STATISTICA includes a file with function interfaces: STB.svx.
