23.1.4 eigen

The package eigen contains several functions devoted to the symbolic computation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Maxima loads the package automatically if one of the functions eigenvalues or eigenvectors is invoked. The package may be loaded explicitly as load ("eigen").

demo ("eigen") displays a demonstration of the capabilities of this package. batch ("eigen") executes the same demonstration, but without the user prompt between successive computations.

The functions in the eigen package are:
innerproduct, unitvector, columnvector, gramschmidt, eigenvalues,
eigenvectors, uniteigenvectors, and similaritytransform.
