Spam Matrix Crossproduct

Description

Given matrices x and y as arguments, return a matrix cross-product. This is formally equivalent to (but usually slightly faster than) the call t(x) %*% y (crossprod.spam) or x %*% t(y) (tcrossprod.spam).

Usage

     crossprod.spam(x, y = NULL, ...)
     
     tcrossprod.spam(x, y = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x, y	matrices: y = NULL is taken to be the same matrix as x. Vectors are promoted to single-column or single-row matrices, depending on the context.
...	potentially further arguments from other methods.

Value

A double matrix

Note

When x or y are not matrices, they are treated as column or row matrices.
