Description
Basic Linear Algebra provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject, starting with concrete examples and progressing to abstract theorems through tutorial-type exercises. The book covers essential topics in linear algebra, including matrix algebra, systems of linear equations, difference equations, and complex numbers.
The text explains key concepts such as linear independence using Hermite normal forms, and introduces the connection between linear mappings and matrices, leading to the change of basis theorem. This edition features additional exercises and a new chapter on computer assistance, providing a tutorial on the use of the "LinearAlgebra" package in MAPLE 7.
