% ivy
)help mdiv

Binary operators:
	Name                  APL   Ivy       Meaning
	Matrix divide         A⌹B   mdiv      Solution to system of linear equations Ax = B
	                                      For real vectors, the magnitude of A projected on B

Experimenting, it looks like mdiv actually solves Bx = A, not Ax = B
(and the behavior matches tryapl.org, so it's a doc bug).
