        see the notes for more information. The default is 'reduced' and to
        maintain backward compatibility with earlier versions of numpy both
        it and the old default 'full' can be omitted. Note that array h
        returned in 'raw' mode is transposed for calling Fortran. The
        'economic' mode is deprecated.  The modes 'full' and 'economic' may
        be passed using only the first letter for backwards compatibility,
        but all others must be spelled out. See the Notes for more
        explanation.


    Returns
    -------
    q : ndarray of float or complex, optional
        A matrix with orthonormal columns. When mode = 'complete' the
        result is an orthogonal/unitary matrix depending on whether or not
        a is real/complex. The determinant may be either +/- 1 in that
        case.
    r : ndarray of float or complex, optional
        The upper-triangular matrix.
    (h, tau) : ndarrays of np.double or np.cdouble, optional
        The array h contains the Householder reflectors that generate q
        along with r. The tau array contains scaling factors for the
        reflectors. In the deprecated  'economic' mode only h is returned.

    Raises
    ------
    LinAlgError
        If factoring fails.

    Notes
    -----
    This is an interface to the LAPACK routines dgeqrf, zgeqrf,
    dorgqr, and zungqr.

    For more information on the qr factorization, see for example:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_factorization

    Subclasses of `ndarray` are preserved except for the 'raw' mode. So if
    `a` is of type `matrix`, all the return values will be matrices too.

    New 'reduced', 'complete', and 'raw' options for mode were added in
    NumPy 1.8.0 and the old option 'full' was made an alias of 'reduced'.  In
    addition the options 'full' and 'economic' were deprecated.  Because
    'full' was the previous default and 'reduced' is the new default,
    backward compatibility can be maintained by letting `mode` default.
    The 'raw' option was added so that LAPACK routines that can multiply
    arrays by q using the Householder reflectors can be used. Note that in
    this case the returned arrays are of type np.double or np.cdouble and
    the h array is transposed to be FORTRAN compatible.  No routines using
    the 'raw' return are currently exposed by numpy, but some are available
    in lapack_lite and just await the necessary work.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> a = np.random.randn(9, 6)
    >>> q, r = np.linalg.qr(a)
    >>> np.allclose(a, np.dot(q, r))  # a does equal qr
    True
    >>> r2 = np.linalg.qr(a, mode='r')
    >>> r3 = np.linalg.qr(a, mode='economic')
    >>> np.allclose(r, r2)  # mode='r' returns the same r as mode='full'
    True
    >>> # But only triu parts are guaranteed equal when mode='economic'
    >>> np.allclose(r, np.triu(r3[:6,:6], k=0))
    True

    Example illustrating a common use of `qr`: solving of least squares
    problems

    What are the least-squares-best `m` and `y0` in ``y = y0 + mx`` for
    the following data: {(0,1), (1,0), (1,2), (2,1)}. (Graph the points
    and you'll see that it should be y0 = 0, m = 1.)  The answer is provided
    by solving the over-determined matrix equation ``Ax = b``, where::

      A = array([[0, 1], [1, 1], [1, 1], [2, 1]])
      x = array([[y0], [m]])
      b = array([[1], [0], [2], [1]])

    If A = qr such that q is orthonormal (which is always possible via
    Gram-Schmidt), then ``x = inv(r) * (q.T) * b``.  (In numpy practice,
    however, we simply use `lstsq`.)

    >>> A = np.array([[0, 1], [1, 1], [1, 1], [2, 1]])
    >>> A
    array([[0, 1],
           [1, 1],
           [1, 1],
           [2, 1]])
    >>> b = np.array([1, 0, 2, 1])
    >>> q, r = LA.qr(A)
    >>> p = np.dot(q.T, b)
    >>> np.dot(LA.inv(r), p)
    array([  1.1e-16,   1.0e+00])

    by an orthogonal matrix, `Q`, and on the right by `Q.T` (the transpose
    of `Q`), preserves the eigenvalues of the "middle" matrix.  In other words,

    Broadcasting rules apply, see the `numpy.linalg` documentation for
    details.

    This is implemented using the _geev LAPACK routines which compute
    the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of general square arrays.

    The number `w` is an eigenvalue of `a` if there exists a vector
    `v` such that ``dot(a,v) = w * v``. Thus, the arrays `a`, `w`, and
    `v` satisfy the equations ``dot(a[:,:], v[:,i]) = w[i] * v[:,i]``
    for :math:`i \\in \\{0,...,M-1\\}`.

    The array `v` of eigenvectors may not be of maximum rank, that is, some
    of the columns may be linearly dependent, although round-off error may
    obscure that fact. If the eigenvalues are all different, then theoretically
    the eigenvectors are linearly independent. Likewise, the (complex-valued)
    matrix of eigenvectors `v` is unitary if the matrix `a` is normal, i.e.,
    if ``dot(a, a.H) = dot(a.H, a)``, where `a.H` denotes the conjugate
    transpose of `a`.

    Finally, it is emphasized that `v` consists of the *right* (as in
    right-hand side) eigenvectors of `a`.  A vector `y` satisfying
    ``dot(y.T, a) = z * y.T`` for some number `z` is called a *left*
    eigenvector of `a`, and, in general, the left and right eigenvectors
    of a matrix are not necessarily the (perhaps conjugate) transposes
    of each other.

    Singular Value Decomposition.

    Factors the matrix `a` as ``u * np.diag(s) * v``, where `u` and `v`

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : (..., M, N) array_like
        A real or complex matrix of shape (`M`, `N`) .
    full_matrices : bool, optional
        If True (default), `u` and `v` have the shapes (`M`, `M`) and

    details.

    The decomposition is performed using LAPACK routine _gesdd

    The SVD is commonly written as ``a = U S V.H``.  The `v` returned
    by this function is ``V.H`` and ``u = U``.

    If ``U`` is a unitary matrix, it means that it
    satisfies ``U.H = inv(U)``.

    The rows of `v` are the eigenvectors of ``a.H a``. The columns
    of `u` are the eigenvectors of ``a a.H``.  For row ``i`` in
    `v` and column ``i`` in `u`, the corresponding eigenvalue is
    ``s[i]**2``.

    If `a` is a `matrix` object (as opposed to an `ndarray`), then so
    are all the return values.

def matrix_rank(M, tol=None):

    Return matrix rank of array using SVD method

    Rank of the array is the number of SVD singular values of the array that are

    Parameters
    ----------
    M : {(M,), (M, N)} array_like
        array of <=2 dimensions
    tol : {None, float}, optional
       threshold below which SVD values are considered zero. If `tol` is
       None, and ``S`` is an array with singular values for `M`, and
       ``eps`` is the epsilon value for datatype of ``S``, then `tol` is
       set to ``S.max() * max(M.shape) * eps``.

    Notes
    -----
    The default threshold to detect rank deficiency is a test on the magnitude
    of the singular values of `M`.  By default, we identify singular values less
    than ``S.max() * max(M.shape) * eps`` as indicating rank deficiency (with
    the symbols defined above). This is the algorithm MATLAB uses [1].  It also
    appears in *Numerical recipes* in the discussion of SVD solutions for linear
    least squares [2].

    This default threshold is designed to detect rank deficiency accounting for
    the numerical errors of the SVD computation.  Imagine that there is a column
    in `M` that is an exact (in floating point) linear combination of other
    columns in `M`. Computing the SVD on `M` will not produce a singular value
    exactly equal to 0 in general: any difference of the smallest SVD value from
    0 will be caused by numerical imprecision in the calculation of the SVD.
    Our threshold for small SVD values takes this numerical imprecision into
    account, and the default threshold will detect such numerical rank
    deficiency.  The threshold may declare a matrix `M` rank deficient even if
    the linear combination of some columns of `M` is not exactly equal to
    another column of `M` but only numerically very close to another column of
    `M`.

    We chose our default threshold because it is in wide use.  Other thresholds
    are possible.  For example, elsewhere in the 2007 edition of *Numerical
    recipes* there is an alternative threshold of ``S.max() *
    np.finfo(M.dtype).eps / 2. * np.sqrt(m + n + 1.)``. The authors describe
    this threshold as being based on "expected roundoff error" (p 71).

    The thresholds above deal with floating point roundoff error in the
    calculation of the SVD.  However, you may have more information about the
    sources of error in `M` that would make you consider other tolerance values
    to detect *effective* rank deficiency.  The most useful measure of the
    tolerance depends on the operations you intend to use on your matrix.  For
    example, if your data come from uncertain measurements with uncertainties
    greater than floating point epsilon, choosing a tolerance near that
    uncertainty may be preferable.  The tolerance may be absolute if the
    uncertainties are absolute rather than relative.

    The pseudo-inverse of a matrix A, denoted :math:`A^+`, is

    :math:`Ax = b`," i.e., if :math:`\\bar{x}` is said solution, then
    :math:`A^+` is that matrix such that :math:`\\bar{x} = A^+b`.

    It can be shown that if :math:`Q_1 \\Sigma Q_2^T = A` is the singular
    value decomposition of A, then
    :math:`A^+ = Q_2 \\Sigma^+ Q_1^T`, where :math:`Q_{1,2}` are
    orthogonal matrices, :math:`\\Sigma` is a diagonal matrix consisting
    of A's so-called singular values, (followed, typically, by
    zeros), and then :math:`\\Sigma^+` is simply the diagonal matrix
    consisting of the reciprocals of A's singular values
    (again, followed by zeros). [1]_

# Linear Least Squares

def lstsq(a, b, rcond=-1):
    """
    Return the least-squares solution to a linear matrix equation.

    Solves the equation `a x = b` by computing a vector `x` that
    minimizes the Euclidean 2-norm `|| b - a x ||^2`.  The equation may
    be under-, well-, or over- determined (i.e., the number of
    linearly independent rows of `a` can be less than, equal to, or
    greater than its number of linearly independent columns).  If `a`
    is square and of full rank, then `x` (but for round-off error) is
    the "exact" solution of the equation.

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : (M, N) array_like
        "Coefficient" matrix.
    b : {(M,), (M, K)} array_like
        Ordinate or "dependent variable" values. If `b` is two-dimensional,
        the least-squares solution is calculated for each of the `K` columns
        of `b`.
    rcond : float, optional
        Cut-off ratio for small singular values of `a`.
        For the purposes of rank determination, singular values are treated
        as zero if they are smaller than `rcond` times the largest singular
        value of `a`.

    Returns
    -------
    x : {(N,), (N, K)} ndarray
        Least-squares solution. If `b` is two-dimensional,
        the solutions are in the `K` columns of `x`.
    residuals : {(), (1,), (K,)} ndarray
        Sums of residuals; squared Euclidean 2-norm for each column in
        ``b - a*x``.
        If the rank of `a` is < N or M <= N, this is an empty array.
        If `b` is 1-dimensional, this is a (1,) shape array.
        Otherwise the shape is (K,).
    rank : int
        Rank of matrix `a`.
    s : (min(M, N),) ndarray
        Singular values of `a`.

    Raises
    ------
    LinAlgError
        If computation does not converge.

    Notes
    -----
    If `b` is a matrix, then all array results are returned as matrices.

    Examples
    --------
    Fit a line, ``y = mx + c``, through some noisy data-points:

    >>> x = np.array([0, 1, 2, 3])
    >>> y = np.array([-1, 0.2, 0.9, 2.1])

    By examining the coefficients, we see that the line should have a
    gradient of roughly 1 and cut the y-axis at, more or less, -1.

    We can rewrite the line equation as ``y = Ap``, where ``A = [[x 1]]``
    and ``p = [[m], [c]]``.  Now use `lstsq` to solve for `p`:

    >>> A = np.vstack([x, np.ones(len(x))]).T
    >>> A
    array([[ 0.,  1.],
           [ 1.,  1.],
           [ 2.,  1.],
           [ 3.,  1.]])

    >>> m, c = np.linalg.lstsq(A, y)[0]
    >>> print(m, c)
    1.0 -0.95

    Plot the data along with the fitted line:

    >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    >>> plt.plot(x, y, 'o', label='Original data', markersize=10)
    >>> plt.plot(x, m*x + c, 'r', label='Fitted line')

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like

# multi_dot

def multi_dot(arrays):
    """
    Compute the dot product of two or more arrays in a single function call,
    while automatically selecting the fastest evaluation order.

    `multi_dot` chains `numpy.dot` and uses optimal parenthesization
    of the matrices [1]_ [2]_. Depending on the shapes of the matrices,
    this can speed up the multiplication a lot.

    If the first argument is 1-D it is treated as a row vector.
    If the last argument is 1-D it is treated as a column vector.
    The other arguments must be 2-D.

    Think of `multi_dot` as::

        def multi_dot(arrays): return functools.reduce(np.dot, arrays)


    Parameters
    ----------
    arrays : sequence of array_like
        If the first argument is 1-D it is treated as row vector.
        If the last argument is 1-D it is treated as column vector.
        The other arguments must be 2-D.

    Returns
    -------
    output : ndarray
        Returns the dot product of the supplied arrays.

    See Also
    --------
    dot : dot multiplication with two arguments.

    Examples
    --------
    `multi_dot` allows you to write::

    >>> from numpy.linalg import multi_dot
    >>> # Prepare some data
    >>> A = np.random.random(10000, 100)
    >>> B = np.random.random(100, 1000)
    >>> C = np.random.random(1000, 5)
    >>> D = np.random.random(5, 333)
    >>> # the actual dot multiplication
    >>> multi_dot([A, B, C, D])

    instead of::

    >>> np.dot(np.dot(np.dot(A, B), C), D)
    >>> # or
    >>> A.dot(B).dot(C).dot(D)


    Example: multiplication costs of different parenthesizations
    ------------------------------------------------------------

    The cost for a matrix multiplication can be calculated with the
    following function::

        def cost(A, B): return A.shape[0] * A.shape[1] * B.shape[1]

    Let's assume we have three matrices
    :math:`A_{10x100}, B_{100x5}, C_{5x50}$`.

    The costs for the two different parenthesizations are as follows::

        cost((AB)C) = 10*100*5 + 10*5*50   = 5000 + 2500   = 7500
        cost(A(BC)) = 10*100*50 + 100*5*50 = 50000 + 25000 = 75000
