Hackerrank Linear Algebra Solution

The NumPy module also comes with a number of built-in routines for linear algebra calculations. These can be found in the sub-module linalg.

linalg.det

The linalg.det tool computes the determinant of an array.

print numpy.linalg.det([[1 , 2], [2, 1]])       #Output : -3.0

---

linalg.eig

The linalg.eig computes the eigenvalues and right eigenvectors of a square array.

vals, vecs = numpy.linalg.eig([[1 , 2], [2, 1]])
print vals                                      #Output : [ 3. -1.]
print vecs                                      #Output : [[ 0.70710678 -0.70710678]
                                                #          [ 0.70710678  0.70710678]]

linalg.inv

The linalg.inv tool computes the (multiplicative) inverse of a matrix.

print numpy.linalg.inv([[1 , 2], [2, 1]])       #Output : [[-0.33333333  0.66666667]
                                                #          [ 0.66666667 -0.33333333]]
