inv

inv(M)

Matrix inverse

Examples

Find the inverse of a matrix:

julia> M = [1 2; 3 4];
julia> inv(M)
2×2 Array{Float64,2}:
-2.0   1.0
 1.5  -0.5

This example calculates the inverse of the matrix M.

Solve a system of linear equations using matrix inversion:
```
julia> A = [2 3; 4 5];
julia> b = [7, 11];
julia> x = inv(A) * b;
julia> x
2-element Array{Float64,1}:
-9.0
 7.0
```
Here, inv(A) is used to find the inverse of matrix A, and then it multiplies with the vector b to solve the linear system Ax = b.
Handle non-invertible matrices:
```
julia> M = [1 2; 2 4];
julia> inv(M)
ERROR: SingularException(2)
```
When a matrix is singular or non-invertible, the inv function throws a SingularException error. It's important to check for singularity before attempting to find the inverse.

Common mistake example:

julia> M = [1 2; 3 4];
julia> inv(M)
ERROR: LinearAlgebra.SingularException(2)

In this example, the matrix M is not invertible because it is singular. The inv function throws a SingularException error when a matrix is non-invertible. Ensure that the matrix is invertible before using inv.
