DOC: Formula used by np.dot for multidimensional arrays

[CharlesAverill]

Documentation

Hi there, I’m looking for the formula that numpy uses to calculate the inner product of multidimensional arrays. I found the C code that generates np.dot but I’m not as competent with C so I’m having a hard time deciphering it. Is there a well-known or at least named algorithm that numpy is using to calculate the inner product of any two given arrays?

Thank you!

I did like to work on this can somebody guide me on this?

The question needs an answer. @yashasvimisra2798 what have you tried in order to track down an answer and add it to the documentation? Maybe the current documentation for dot already has an answer. Maybe matmul could provide a clue.

I would like to work on this.
I found that the implementation is in numpy/core/src/multiarray/multiarraymodule.c.
