showmatrix

PURPOSE

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

 showmatrix.m displays a matrix, no matter how wide it is.  It can be edited to change the number of decimal places shown.

CROSS-REFERENCE INFORMATION

• example5_3_23 example5_3_23.m
• hitting hitting.m displays the distribution of the first hitting time of state j
• potential potential.m computes the expected number of visits to j starting at i. It infers locations where R(i,j) should be infinity by checking whether P^5000 has entries significantly larger than 0. If so, R(i,j) is set to infinity.
• system1 system1.m sets up the transition matrix for a simple system with an absorbing state, calculates powers of the transition matrix, and shows simulations of the chain
• system2 system2.m sets up the transition matrix for a simple system with no absorbing state, calculates powers of the transition matrix, and shows simulations of the chain
