Syntax #

math.zeros(m)
math.zeros(m, format)
math.zeros(m, n)
math.zeros(m, n, format)
math.zeros([m, n])
math.zeros([m, n], format)

Parameters #

Parameter	Type	Description
size	...number | Array	The size of each dimension of the matrix
format	string	The Matrix storage format

Returns #

Type	Description
Array | Matrix	A matrix filled with zeros

Examples #

math.zeros(3);                  // returns [0, 0, 0]
math.zeros(3, 2);               // returns [[0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0]]
math.zeros(3, 'dense');         // returns [0, 0, 0]

var A = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]];
math.zeros(math.size(A));       // returns [[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]]
