Arangala C. Exploring Linear Algebra: Labs and Projects with Mathematica

2nd. ed. - CRC Press, 2025. - 163 p. - (Textbooks in Mathematics). - ISBN 1032942312.This text focuses on the primary topics in a first course in Linear Algebra. The author includes additional advanced topics related to data analysis, singular value decomposition and connections to differential equations. This is a lab text that would lead a class through Linear Algebra using Mathematica demonstrations and Mathematica coding. The book includes interesting examples embedded in the projects. Examples include the discussions of “Lights Out”, Nim, the Hill Cipher, and others.The 2nd. Edition contains:Additional Theorems and Problems for students to prove/disprove (these act as theory exercises at the end of most sections of the text).
Additional sections that support Data Analytics techniques, such as Kroenecker sums and products, LU decomposition of the Vandermonde matrix.
Updated and expanded end of chapter projects.Instructors and students alike have enjoyed this popular book as it offers the opportunity to add Mathematica to the Linear Algebra course.True PDF
