```

## Topics

### Creating Matrix Multiplication Descriptors

[`init()`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCMatMulDescriptor/init())

Creates a batched matrix multiplication descriptor.

[`init(alpha:transposesX:transposesY:)`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCMatMulDescriptor/init(alpha:transposesX:transposesY:))

Creates a batched matrix multiplication descriptor with the alpha value and transpose options you specify.

### Inspecting Matrix Multiplication Descriptors

[`alpha`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCMatMulDescriptor/alpha)

A scalar value you specify to scale the result in C = alpha x A x B.

[`transposesX`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCMatMulDescriptor/transposesX)

A Boolean that specifies whether you choose to transpose the last two dimensions of x.

[`transposesY`](/documentation/MLCompute/MLCMatMulDescriptor/transposesY)

A Boolean that specifies whether you choose to transpose the last two dimensions of y.
