  • Book
  • Gilbert Strang, "Linear algebra and its applications" (Editor: Brooks Cole) 4th Edition (2006).

    Note: There is an "international edition" that claims to be edition 4 as well. This is probably a pirate version, and it does not agree with the actual 4th edition. The content is probably the same, but the page numbers are different. You can try to use it, but you will need to get the HW problems from an actual 4th edition book.

  • Due: each Th in class or by 2:30pm in my office. See here for all the the homework problems with their due dates.
