Array multiplication

Why does this generate DimensionMismatch? The dimensions seem to be the same size when I break them out into individual vectors u,v,w.

Be careful, “*” with arrays try the dot matrix, so they cannot have the same size. If you want to multiply element by element you should have done:

u'  .* x

or for the matrix multiplication

u * x

depending of your aim .

Also:

size(eachrow(A))
julia> size(eachrow(A))
(3,)

julia> size(x)
(1, 2)

It is, A has 3 rows, and x has two elements, so the dot operation is not possible.

Is there anything ModelingToolkit in here? Looks like it’s just a question about multiplication of arrays.

I don’t really know if this is what you are looking for, but atleast

eachrow(A) .⋅ Ref(x)

doesn’t error.

Sorry for the noise, you’re right: this wasn’t specific to ModelingToolkit. mikkoku’s answer solves my problem.
