Description
Offered here is an unintimidating introduction to the basic matrix computations of science and engineering. Topics include the solution of linear equations by Gaussian elimination and the related LU decomposition, the QR decomposition and the least squares problem, eigen-system computations, and the singular value decomposition. Algorithms are introduced early in the discussion of each major topic, which allows students to start programming right away.
