TEXT(beginproblem());

Initialization:

Context("Matrix");

$A = Matrix([
[random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1)],
[random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1)],
]);

$B = Matrix([random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1),random(-5,5,1)]);

$answer = $A * ($B->transpose);

Setup: Use Context("Matrix");. MathObject matrices are constructed using the Matrix() constructor. The matrix A has two rows and three columns, and is constructed by [ [row 1 entries], [row 2 entries] ], and this construction generalizes in the obvious way. If a matrix has only one row, such as B, then it is entered as [row 1 entries] and not as [ [row 1 entries] ]. If $B = Matrix([a,b,c]);, then the matrix $B->transpose is equivalent to Matrix([[a],[b],[c]]); which has an outer pair of brackets enclosing all of the rows, where each row encloses its single element with brackets.

Suppose

Evaluate the following matrix product.

END_TEXT
Context()->normalStrings;

Main Text: Use the ->ans_array(width) method on the MathObject matrix $answer to produce an array of answer boxes each with a specified character width.

$showPartialCorrectAnswers = 1;

ANS( $answer->cmp() );

Answer Evaluation: Use standard MathObject answer evaluation.
