Identity matrices on MLX devices

Usage

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

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.

device

Execution target: supply "gpu", "cpu", or an mlx_stream created via mlx_new_stream(). Defaults to the current mlx_default_device() unless noted otherwise (helpers that act on an existing array typically reuse that array's device or stream).

Value

An mlx identity matrix.

Examples

I4 <- mlx_identity(4)
