condition_number(A)

Find the condition number of matrix, A.

Notes

Definition [burdenNumericalAnalysis2016]_: The condition number of the non-singular matrix, $\mathbf{A}$ relative to a norm, ||⋅|| is

\[ K(\mathbf{A}) = ||\mathbf{A}|| ⋅ ||\mathbf{A}^{-1}||\]

A matrix is well-conditioned if $K(\mathbf{A})$ is close to 1 and is ill-conditioned if significantly greater than 1.
