As per title. For example, this works: using LinearAlgebra A = rand(3, 3) b = rand(3) @show b b \= A @show b b = [0.09019616214492654, 0.2564457656075061, 0.7120782534101571] b = [0.5468125936523385 1.4817879951917017 0.5732261599468792] but this doesn’t: using LinearAlgebra A = factorize(rand(…

[image] giancarloantonucci: Ah! I see. Then the question comes down to: Is there a way to add a new definition for \= ? No. x \= y is just syntactic sugar for x = x \ y. There is no way to redefine \= by itself.

How can I use \= with factorizations?
