dot product / scalar product / inner product / projection product 點積/內積/純量積 a·b
A·B = |A| |B| cos(θ)
AB = |A| cos(θ)
For vectors a = (a1, a2, ..., an) and b = (b1, b2, ..., bn) ,
a·b = a1b1 + a2b2 + ... + anbn
For example, vectors a = (1, 2, 3) and b = (0, 4, 5),
a·b = 1×0 + 2×4 + 3×5 = 23
Matlab code:
>> a = [1 2 3];
>> b = [0 4 5];
>> dot(a,b)
ans =
23
