ishermitian
ishermitian(A) -> Bool
Test whether a matrix is Hermitian.
Examples
julia> A = [1 2+3im 4; 2-3im 5 6; 4 6 7];
julia> ishermitian(A)
true
This example checks whether the matrix A
is Hermitian. The function ishermitian
returns true
if the matrix is Hermitian, and false
otherwise.
julia> B = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
julia> ishermitian(B)
false
In this example, the matrix B
is not Hermitian, so the function returns false
.
Common mistake example:
julia> C = [1 2+3im; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
julia> ishermitian(C)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching ishermitian(::Array{Complex{Int64},2})
In this case, the matrix C
contains complex numbers, but ishermitian
only works with real matrices. Make sure to provide a real matrix to the ishermitian
function to avoid such errors.
