.*

Syntax

R = A .* B

Inputs

A

Any valid scalar | vector | matrix.

Type: double | integer | logical | struct | cell

Dimension: scalar | vector | matrix

B

Any valid scalar | complex number | matrix.

Type: double | integer | logical | struct | cell

Examples

Basic dot product example with two scalars:

R = 3.*2

R = 6

Dot product of a matrix and a scalar:

R = [1 2 5 3].*2

R = [ 2 4 10 6 ]

Dot product of a matrix and a matrix:

R = [1 3 6].*[7 2 8]

R = [ 7 6 48 ]
