transpose

transpose(A)

The transposition operator (.').

Examples

julia> A = [1 2 3;
            4 5 6;
            7 8 9];
julia> transpose(A)
3×3 Transpose{Int64,Array{Int64,2}}:
 1  4  7
 2  5  8
 3  6  9

1. Transpose a matrix:

   julia> A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
   julia> transpose(A)
   3×3 Transpose{Int64,Array{Int64,2}}:
   1  4  7
   2  5  8
   3  6  9

   It transposes the matrix A, flipping the rows and columns.

2. Transpose a vector:

   julia> v = [1, 2, 3, 4];
   julia> transpose(v)
   4×1 Transpose{Int64,Array{Int64,1}}:
   1
   2
   3
   4

   It converts the vector v into a column matrix.

3. Transpose a string:

   julia> s = "hello";
   julia> transpose(s)
   5×1 Transpose{Char,Array{Char,1}}:
   'h'
   'e'
   'l'
   'l'
   'o'

   It converts the string s into a column matrix of characters.

Common mistake example:

julia> A = [1 2 3;
            4 5 6];
julia> transpose(A)
ERROR: DimensionMismatch("matrix is not square: dimensions are (2, 3)")

In this example, the matrix A is not square, resulting in a DimensionMismatch error. The transpose operation requires the matrix to be square (equal number of rows and columns). Ensure that the matrix dimensions are compatible before applying the transpose function.
