Description

This Parameter sets the maximum width of the matrix table. If the table is larger than this area, a horizontal scroll bar is added.

A matrix table is used to graphically show the data that is currently being computed in the context of the problem being solved. For matrix factoring, this is a picture of the matrix as divided into the blocks used for processing. For other computations, including vector solution and matrix multiply, a picture of the matrix and vectors is displayed.

As the calculation proceeds, the status (color, label) of the blocks is changed.

You can use the scroll bar to examine the part of the display not currently in view. This example is performing forward reduction. The factored block L4,1 is being multiplied with the reduced vector block R1,1 and subtracted from the vector block M4,1.
