TTh, 9:00-10:15, REC 309
Office hours: Tue 12:00-1:15, Th 1:15-2:30.
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.
