[[1],[3],[5],[1],[4],[5],[6],[1]]

the ranks are:

[[2],[4],[6.5],[2],[5],[6.5],[8],[2]].

Is rank of matrix supposed to be a single number?
What does above list of numbers mean?

It is not the rank of a matrix, but the scores to be given to the various values. For example, ranks are used in the statistical test "Wilcoxon signed-rank test": https://www.technologynetworks.com/infor...est-370384
