This exercise will help you in introducing how to perform the householders method to transform a symmetric matrix a into the tridiagonal form. Well, i have constructed a matrix called r1 from the elements of a, so the next step is to construct matrices rk from the previous rs but that is the thing i dont know how to performed since the algorithm says that it is like a stair, right, so i have clear what is the beta parameter, but i dont know how to say to the computer ok, once you have r1 construct the other beta and so on. If a is an mbyn matrix with m n, then qr computes only the first n columns of q and the first n rows of r. If mn, only the first n columns of q and the first n rows of r. The % results may be used to construct a left or right householder matrix and they % depend on whether the input parameters are column or row vectors. The qr decomposition is often the first step in algorithms for solving many different matrix problems, including linear systems, eigenvalues, and singular values.

The more common approach to qr decomposition is employing householder reflections rather than utilizing gramschmidt. The qr algorithm is one of the most successful and powerful tools we have in mathematical software. If m n, then qr computes only the first n columns of q and the first n rows of r if m software is really powerful. If m n, then qr computes only the first n rows of c and r. However, tsqr produces a different representation of the orthogonal factor and therefore requires more software development to support the new representation.
