Command MATRIX

[rmendez]

Hi,
I have stumble across upon a RATS code that use the command MATRIX,
for which I don't find any description in the documentation.

I suppose this command has been superseded by COMPUTE. Am I right? What was this COMMAND about? Is it a C++ command?

Thanks in Advance for any hint

Regards,
Rodolfo

In the old days, one had to use specific commands for real computations (EVAL), integer computations (IEVAL), and matrix computations (MATRIX).

Those were all superseded by the COMPUTE instruction, which I believe was introduced in Version 4. The old commands are still supported, but for any new coding, you'll want to use COMPUTE.
