Some of you may find this, not so useful for other topics that you're diving into. But it's helpful to know how R thinks about matrix math and some of the tools that are available for using it. Over the course of my study, I have started to gather some of the tools that R provides and provide a document that you can use for reference. Which you'll find in the example files is a document called matrix math quick reference RMD. It's an R markup document. At first glance, it's somewhat messy. But if you load it into our studio, and then hit the knit button, what you'll be presented with, is a document that is a quick reference to all of the R matrix math type tools.
