Like any wild animal, moose are unpredictable and should be given a respectful amount of space.

Like the " dimension of image " characterization this can be generalized to a definition of the rank of a linear map: the rank of a linear map f from V → W is the minimal dimension k of an intermediate space X such that f can be written as the composition of a map V → X and a map X → W. While this definition does not suggest an efficient manner to compute the rank ( for which it is better to use one of the alternative definitions ), it does allow to easily understand many of the properties of the rank, for instance that the rank of the transpose of A is the same as that of A.
