Stacking Columns of a matrix in Maxima

I want to stack columns of a matrix in Maxima.

Example

b3: matrix(
 [1,0,0], 
 [-a21,1,0], 
 [-a31,-a32,1]
);

I wonder how to stack the columns of this matrix. Thanks in advance for your help and time.

Solution

  • Here is an naive way of doing it:

    c : transpose( b3 );
transpose( append( c[0], c[1], c[2] ) );

    and here is a more general way:

    apply(append, map(lambda([r], transpose(b3)[r]), makelist(i,i,3)));
