Abstract

The present invention discloses a mathematical technique which finds substantial utility in electrical engineering, particularly in the general field of data transformation, which occurs in applications such as data encryption and data compression. The technique uses a commencement matrix to transform a first number of a sequence of numbers. This initial transformation forms a forward resultant matrix. Successive transformation of succeeding numbers in the sequence produces for each number in the sequence an augmented forward resultant matrix. Each augmented forward resultant matrix is used to transform the next succeeding number of the sequence, and so on. A final transformed sequence is generated from the final form of the augmented forward resultant matrix.
