[null,null,["Last updated 2023-10-06 UTC."],[],["The `matrixCholeskyDecomposition` function computes the Cholesky decomposition of a symmetric positive-definite matrix. It decomposes the input matrix into a lower triangular matrix (L) and its transpose (L'). The function requires an array as input. It returns a dictionary containing the lower triangular matrix 'L' as its sole entry. This decomposition represents the matrix in the form L * L'.\n"]]
