Task
Element-wise operations
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Similar to Matrix multiplication and Matrix transposition, the task is to implement basic element-wise matrix-matrix and scalar-matrix operations, which can be referred to in other, higher-order tasks. Implement addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and exponentiation.

Extend the task if necessary to include additional basic operations, which should not require their own specialised task. A reference implementation in Common Lisp is included.

Ada

Using Generics, the task is quite trivial in Ada. Here is the main program:

<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO, Matrix_Scalar;

procedure Scalar_Ops is

  subtype T is Integer range 1 .. 3;
  package M is new Matrix_Scalar(T, T, Integer);
  -- the functions to solve the task
       function "+" is new M.Func("+");
       function "-" is new M.Func("-");
       function "*" is new M.Func("*");
       function "/" is new M.Func("/");
       function "**" is new M.Func("**");
       function "mod" is new M.Func("mod");
  -- for output purposes, we need a Matrix->String conversion
       function Image is new M.Image(Integer'Image);
  A: M.Matrix := ((1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8,9)); -- something to begin with

begin

  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("  Initial M=" & Image(A));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("        M+2=" & Image(A+2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("        M-2=" & Image(A-2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("        M*2=" & Image(A*2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("        M/2=" & Image(A/2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("  square(M)=" & Image(A ** 2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("    M mod 2=" & Image(A mod 2));
  Ada.Text_IO.Put_Line("(M*2) mod 3=" & Image((A*2) mod 3));

end Scalar_Ops;</lang>

The output is:

  Initial M=((1,2,3),(4,5,6),(7,8,9))                                                      
        M+2=((3,4,5),(6,7,8),(9,10,11))                                                    
        M-2=((-1,0,1),(2,3,4),(5,6,7))
        M*2=((2,4,6),(8,10,12),(14,16,18))                                                 
        M/2=((0,1,1),(2,2,3),(3,4,4))
  square(M)=((1,4,9),(16,25,36),(49,64,81))
    M mod 2=((1,0,1),(0,1,0),(1,0,1))
(M*2) mod 3=((2,1,0),(2,1,0),(2,1,0))


Our main program uses a generic package Matrix_Scalar. Here is the specification:

<lang Ada>generic

  type Rows is (<>);
  type Cols is (<>);
  type Num is private;

package Matrix_Scalar is

  type Matrix is array(Rows, Cols) of Num;
  generic
     with function F(L, R: Num) return Num;
  function Func(Left: Matrix; Right: Num) return Matrix;
  generic
     with function Image(N: Num) return String;
  function Image(M: Matrix) return String;

end Matrix_Scalar;</lang>

And here is the corresponding implementation. Note that the function Image (which we just use to output the results) takes much more lines than the function Func we need for actually solving the task:

<lang Ada>package body Matrix_Scalar is

  function Func(Left: Matrix; Right: Num) return Matrix is
     Result: Matrix;
  begin
     for R in Rows loop
        for C in Cols loop
           Result(R,C) := F(Left(R,C), Right);
        end loop;
     end loop;
     return Result;
  end Func;
  function Image(M: Matrix) return String is
     function Img(R: Rows) return String is
        function I(C: Cols) return String is
           S: String := Image(M(R,C));
           L: Positive := S'First;
        begin
           while S(L) = ' ' loop
              L := L + 1;
           end loop;
           if C=Cols'Last then
              return S(L .. S'Last);
           else
              return S(L .. S'Last) & "," & I(Cols'Succ(C));
           end if;
        end I;
        Column: String := I(Cols'First);
     begin
        if R=Rows'Last then
           return "(" & Column & ")";
        else
           return "(" & Column & ")," & Img(Rows'Succ(R));
        end if;
     end Img;
  begin
     return("(" & Img(Rows'First) & ")");
  end Image;

end Matrix_Scalar;</lang>

   for rx, row := range rows {
       copy(m.ele[rx*m.stride:(rx+1)*m.stride], row)
   }
   return m

   }

}

   for i, m1e := range m1.ele {
       z.ele[i] = f(m1e, m2.ele[i])

J

Solution: J's arithmetical primitives act elementwise by default (in J parlance, such operations are known as "scalar" or "rank zero", which means they generalize to high-order arrays transparently, operating elementwise). Thus: <lang j> scalar =: 10

  vector =: 2 3 5
  matrix =: 3 3 $    7 11 13  17 19 23  29 31 37

PARI/GP

GP already implements element-wise matrix-matrix addition and subtraction and element-wise scalar-matrix multiplication and division. Other element-wise matrix-matrix functions: <lang parigp>multMM(A,B)=matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,A[i,j]*B[i,j]); divMM(A,B)=matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,A[i,j]/B[i,j]); powMM(A,B)=matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,A[i,j]^B[i,j]);</lang>

Other element-wise scalar-matrix functions: <lang parigp>addMs(A,s)=A+matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,s); subMs(A,s)=A-matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,s); powMs(A,s)=matrix(#A[,1],#A,i,j,A[i,j]^s);</lang>

PARI implements convenience functions vecmul (element-wise matrix-matrix multiplication), vecdiv (element-wise matrix-matrix division), and vecpow (element-wise matrix-scalar exponentiation), as well as vecmodii and vecinv. These operate on vectors, but a t_MAT is simply an array of vectors in PARI so it applies fairly easily.

Perl

There's no need to use real multi-dimentional arrays to represent matrix. Since matrices have fixed row length, they can be represented by flat array.

This example demonstrates Perl's operator overload ability and bulk list operations using map.

File Elementwise.pm: <lang perl>package Elementwise;

use Exporter 'import';

use overload '=' => sub { $_[0]->clone() }, '+' => sub { $_[0]->add($_[1]) }, '-' => sub { $_[0]->sub($_[1]) }, '*' => sub { $_[0]->mul($_[1]) }, '/' => sub { $_[0]->div($_[1]) }, '**' => sub { $_[0]->exp($_[1]) },

sub new { my ($class, $v) = @_; return bless $v, $class; }

sub clone { my @ret = @{$_[0]}; return bless \@ret, ref($_[0]); }

sub add { new Elementwise [map { $_[0][$_] + $_[1][$_] } 0 .. $#{$_[0]} ] } sub sub { new Elementwise [map { $_[0][$_] - $_[1][$_] } 0 .. $#{$_[0]} ] } sub mul { new Elementwise [map { $_[0][$_] * $_[1][$_] } 0 .. $#{$_[0]} ] } sub div { new Elementwise [map { $_[0][$_] / $_[1][$_] } 0 .. $#{$_[0]} ] } sub exp { new Elementwise [map { $_[0][$_] ** $_[1][$_] } 0 .. $#{$_[0]} ] }

1;</lang>

File test.pl: <lang perl>use Elementwise;

$a = new Elementwise [ 1,2,3, 4,5,6, 7,8,9 ];

print "a @$a\n"; print "+ @{$a+$a}\n"; print "- @{$a-$a}\n"; print "* @{$a*$a}\n"; print "/ @{$a/$a}\n"; print "^ @{$a**$a}\n";</lang>

Output:

a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

- 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Perl 6

Perl 6 already implements this and other metaoperators as higher-order functions (cross, zip, reduce, triangle, etc.) that are usually accessed through a meta-operator syntactic sugar that is productive over all appropriate operators, including user-defined ones. In this case, a dwimmy element-wise operator (generically known as a "hyper") is indicated by surrounding the operator with double angle quotes. Hypers dwim on the pointy end with cyclic APL semantics as necessary. You can turn the quote the other way to suppress dwimmery on that end. In this case we could have used »op» instead of «op» since the short side is always on the right.<lang perl6>my @a =

   [1,2,3],
   [4,5,6],
   [7,8,9];

sub msay(@x) {

   .perl.say for @x;
   say ;

}

msay @a «+» @a; msay @a «-» @a; msay @a «*» @a; msay @a «/» @a; msay @a «+» [1,2,3]; msay @a «-» [1,2,3]; msay @a «*» [1,2,3]; msay @a «/» [1,2,3]; msay @a «+» 2; msay @a «-» 2; msay @a «*» 2; msay @a «/» 2;</lang> Output:

In addition to calling the underlying higher-order functions directly, it's supposed to be possible to name a function like &[«+»] to get the first example above, but current implementations as of 2011-06 do not yet support that.
