Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra#

Linear algebra, including solving a linear system of the form \({\bf A}{\bf x} = {\bf b}\) is at the heart of many numerical applications. Here we’ll learn the basic methods to work with matrices.

Later, we’ll use our numerical linear algebra when we discuss:

  • Fitting to data

  • Machine learning

  • Diffusion problems

  • Stiff ordinary differential equations / nuclear reaction networks
