Generate a constant matrix or vector like an existing matrix or vector

stm_constant_like() generates a constant matrix or vector that matches the dimensions of the provided input matrix or vector.

Usage

stm_constant_like(vmat, k = 2)

Arguments

vmat

A matrix or vector whose dimensions will be used to generate the constant matrix or vector.

k

A numeric value representing the constant to fill the generated matrix or vector. Default is 2.

Value

A matrix or vector of the same dimensions as vmat, filled with the constant value k.

Details

The function checks the validity of the input vmat and k, converting vmat to a matrix if it is a vector. It then generates a matrix of the same size as vmat filled with the constant value k.
