Parameters
matrixIn
The name of the input matrix.
Type: NVARCHAR(ANY)
matrixOut
The name of the output matrix.
Type: NVARCHAR(ANY)
power
The power to use.
Type: DOUBLE
row_start
The first row of the input matrix to use.
Type: INT4
col_start
The first column of the input matrix to use.
Type: INT4
row_stop
The last row of the input matrix to use.

col_stop
The last column of the input matrix to use.
Type: INT4
Returns
BOOLEAN TRUE, if successful.

Examples

CALL nzm..shape('1,2,3,4,5,0,6,7,8',3,3,'A');
