The textbook '''''Linear Algebra''''' by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgiy_Shilov Georgi Shilov] thoroughly covers all major aspects of linear algebra, in addition it covers more geometrically motivated linear algebra in the latter half. | The textbook '''''Linear Algebra''''' by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgiy_Shilov Georgi Shilov] thoroughly covers all major aspects of linear algebra, in addition it covers more geometrically motivated linear algebra in the latter half. | ||
This text can be viewed as an introduction to reading mathematics texts; The initial proofs are on arithmetic and properties of linear equations, and are more approachable than the manipulations of functions typical of analysis texts. It is difficult to overstate the universal importance of this subject, but it can be seen through reading. Linear algebra is the basis of all quantities of interest in physics, geometry, number theory, and the same techniques appear in engineering disciplines such as mechanics and machine learning. | |||
