cumsum — Cumulative Summation


\begin{rail}
CumSum : 'cumsum' '(' Matrix ')' ;
\end{rail}
cumsum takes a matrix argument, and produces another matrix of the same dimensions. Each element in the resultant matrix consists of the cumulative sum of the that element and all previous elements in that column of the argument matrix. If the argument is either a row or column vector, the cumulative summation is performed on that row or column. $\Longrightarrow$ This is not an built-in function. This function is normally loaded on start-up from the cumsum.r file in the standard rlib directory. Use of the -r option, incorrectly setting the RLAB_LIB_DIR environmental variable, or modifying cumsum.r may make this function unavailable.
