Identity matrices on MLX devices

Usage

mlx_identity(n, dtype = c("float32", "float64"))

Arguments

n

Size of the square matrix.

dtype

Data type string. Supported types include:

  • Floating point: "float32", "float64"

  • Integer: "int8", "int16", "int32", "int64", "uint8", "uint16", "uint32", "uint64"

  • Other: "bool", "complex64"

Not all functions support all types. See individual function documentation.

Value

An mlx identity matrix.

Details

MLX does not support float64 operations on GPU. When this function creates a float64 array or converts one back to R, Rmlx temporarily switches only that internal creation or layout work to CPU. Later operations on the returned array still use the current mlx_device().

Examples

I4 <- mlx_identity(4)
