Returns the numerical rank of a matrix using the specified tolerance.

Namespace: Extreme.Mathematics.LinearAlgebra
Assembly: Extreme.Numerics (Extreme.Numerics)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Overrides Function Rank ( _
	tolerance As Double _
) As Integer
C#
public override int Rank (
	double tolerance
)
C++
public:
virtual int Rank (
	double tolerance
) override

Parameters

tolerance (System.Double)
The absolute tolerance used to determine if a matrix component is considered zero.

Return Value

An integer indicating the numerical rank of the matrix.

Remarks

If tolerance is negative, the default tolerance is used. The default tolerance is equal to the product of the machine precision, the largest dimension of the matrix, and the one-norm of the matrix. The rank is determined by counting the number of diagonal elements of the upper-triangular component of the decomposition whose absolute value is greater than the tolerance.
