# scipy.linalg.cho_solve

`scipy.linalg.``cho_solve`(c_and_lower, b, overwrite_b=False, check_finite=True)

  Solve the linear equations A x = b, given the Cholesky factorization of A.

  Parameters : | (c, lower) : tuple, (array, bool) Cholesky factorization of a, as given by cho_factor b : array Right-hand side check_finite : boolean, optional Whether to check the input matrixes contain only finite numbers. Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result to problems (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs.
  Returns : | x : array The solution to the system A x = b
