Description
Block Forward Substitution solves a system of linear equations by a simple direct substitution of variables, where:
-
— lower triangular coefficient matrix on at the entrance L;
-
— the matrix of free terms on at the entrance B;
-
— solving a system of equations, a matrix on the output is X.
The block does not check the rank of the input matrices. The block uses only elements below the main diagonal of the matrix and ignores the elements above. If the option is set Input L is upper triangular matrix, then the block assumes that the elements on the diagonal equal 1. This is useful when the matrix It is the result of another operation, such as LDL decomposition, which uses diagonal elements to represent the matrix. .

Parameters
Main
#
Input L is upper triangular matrix —
the diagonal elements of the input matrix have the value 1
Logical
Details
Check this box only if all the elements on the diagonal of the input L have the value 1. At the same time, the block optimizes its behavior by skipping an unnecessary division operation.
Do not check this box if any elements on the diagonal of the input L are not equal. 1. When you uncheck the box Input L is upper triangular matrix a block always performs a division operation.
