imat_result/times

Purpose

Termwise multiply results (r1.*r2).

Syntax

r1.*r2
r.*x
x.*r

Description

The following termwise multiplication operations are possible with imat_result objects:

• Multiplying two imat_result objects causes their data values to be multiplied termwise. The DataLocations must agree between the results being multiplied. If both operands are results, they must have the same dimensions. The data attributes of the result of a termwise multiplication will be taken from the left operand, except that result data types (i.e., units exponents) will correctly reflect the combination of the two operands.

• Multiplying a numeric array or scalar times an imat_result causes the numeric values to be termwise multiplied into the data values of the imat_result. If the numeric array is not a scalar, it can either have the dimensions of the result or the dimensions of the Data attribute of the imat_result. If it has the same dimensions as the imat_result, the numeric value corresponding to that index will be multiplied by all of the data values of that index in the imat_result.
