Hi, and you don't like to tell us *what* your inner product is ? *and* you are unable to compute InnerProduct[vector,#] & /@ {basisUnitVector1,basisUnitVector2,...} very strange.

For example: | | FunctionX[{1,2,3}, {{1,2,0},{0,1,0},{0,0,1}}] | | (where the first argument is the vector and the second the basis) | | would yield | | {1,0,3} | | and | | FunctionX[f x1 - b x2 + x3 - x2, {x1,x2,x3}] | | would yield | | {f, -b-1, 1} | | I'm more interested in the second case, obviously, because the first one | can be achieved with a simple matrix multiplication. | | David Boily | Center for Intelligent Machines | Mcgill University |
