matrix.I

Returns the (multiplicative) inverse of invertible self.

Parameters:
None
Returns:
ret : matrix object

If self is non-singular, ret is such that ret * self == self * ret == np.matrix(np.eye(self[0,:].size) all return True.

Raises:
numpy.linalg.LinAlgError: Singular matrix

If self is singular.
