matrix multiplication python numpy code example

Example 1: python numpy multiply matrices

a = np.array([[-6, 1], [1, 1]])
b = np.array([[0], [8]])

c = a.dot(b) # multiply matrice a and b

Example 2: how to multiply matrices in python

# Program to multiply two matrices using list comprehension

# 3x3 matrix
X = [[12,7,3],
    [4 ,5,6],
    [7 ,8,9]]

# 3x4 matrix
Y = [[5,8,1,2],
    [6,7,3,0],
    [4,5,9,1]]

# result is 3x4
result = [[sum(a*b for a,b in zip(X_row,Y_col)) for Y_col in zip(*Y)] for X_row in X]

Example 3: python matrix multiplication

>>> a = np.array([[ 5, 1 ,3], 
                  [ 1, 1 ,1], 
                  [ 1, 2 ,1]])
>>> b = np.array([1, 2, 3])
>>> print a.dot(b)
array([16, 6, 8])
