Hi Matt,
Petr gave you one possibility. If you are looking for more matrix
operations see:
?"%*%" # the inner product of the matrices
?"%o%" # the outer product of the matrices
?"(" # for parentheses to help order things
require(MASS) # load the package MASS
?ginv # for the generalized inverse of a matrix
For things like constants which you just want treated normally, use
the regular multiplication operator, "*", not the matrix one.
HTH,
Josh
