In linear algebra, a matrix is said to be  scaled in rows if the number of zeros  preceding the first non−zero value of  a row increases row by row until  ultimately all that remains are zero :     [(⊕,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗),(0,0,⊕,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗),(0,0,0,⊕,∗,∗,∗,∗,∗),(0,0,0,0,0,0,⊕,∗,∗),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,⊕),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0) ]    A scaled matrix is called a reduced  scaled matrix or canonical row matrix  if the pivots are equal to 1 and if the  other coefficients in the colums of the  pivots are zero. Example :     [(0,1,(13),0,(−19),0,(99)),(0,0,0,1,(12),0,(20)),(0,0,0,0,0,1,(47)),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0),(0,0,0,0,0,0,0) ]
