NORM NORM Norm Calculation Usage Calculates the norm of a matrix. There are two ways to use the norm function. The general syntax is y = norm(A,p) where A is the matrix to analyze, and p is the type norm to compute. The following choices of p are supported - p = 1 returns the 1-norm, or the max column sum of A - p = 2 returns the 2-norm (largest singular value of A) - p = inf returns the infinity norm, or the max row sum of A - p = 'fro' returns the Frobenius-norm (vector Euclidean norm, or RMS value) For a vector, the regular norm calculations are performed: - 1 <= p < inf returns sum(abs(A).^p)^(1/p) - p unspecified returns norm(A,2) - p = inf returns max(abs(A)) - p = -inf returns min(abs(A))
