Also I have doubts in the way Matrix is submitted to map-reduce.
Lets Assume if my matrix is :
                1 2 3
                4 5 6
Then will Key be RowNumber and Value will be TupleValues ??? Something like 
this :

Key<IntWritable>            Value <TupleWritable>
    1                                                          1 2 3
    2                                                          4 5 6

Sorry for the basic questions but I am not able to find any useful links/docs

Subject: Query about MatrixMultiplicationJob in Mahout

Hi All,
I am pretty new to Mahout and this is my first attempt . I wanted to tryout 
MatrixMultiplicationJob but facing some issues in Input format.
I noticed that MatrixMultiplicationJob takes input as 
<IntWritable,TupleWritable> and then perform the MR to produce matrix 
multiplication output in SequenceFileFormat<Intwritable, VectorWritable>.

So here I am at the first step to create the input file currently as 
TextInputFormat<LongWritable,Text> to SequenceFileOutputFormat 
<IntWritable,TupleWritable>. So that I can send this type of file as an input 
to MatrixMultiplicationJob

My Text input file is of format : Row = 2, Column = 3,
1
2
3
4
5
6
So I assume this will be picked as
1 2 3
4 5 6

This is the input file which I have created and not even sure if this is the 
correct way to send input to convert the TextInputFormat to SequenceFile format.

Please Suggest
