Entrywise Sum
The usual matrix addition is defined for two matrices of the same dimensions. The sum of two m × n (pronounced "m by n") matrices A and B, denoted by A + B, is again an m × n matrix computed by adding corresponding elements:
For example:
We can also subtract one matrix from another, as long as they have the same dimensions. A − B is computed by subtracting corresponding elements of A and B, and has the same dimensions as A and B. For example:

Famous quotes containing the word sum:
“If the twentieth century is to be better than the nineteenth, it will be because there are among us men who walk in Priestleys footsteps....To all eternity, the sum of truth and right will have been increased by their means; to all eternity, falsehoods and injustice will be the weaker because they have lived.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (182595)
