18.06SC Linear Algebra
18.06SC Linear Algebra (Fall 2011, MIT OCW). Taught by Prof. Gilbert Strang, this course covers matrix theory and linear algebra, emphasizing topics useful in other disciplines such as physics, economics and social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering. This course has been designed for independent study. It provides everything you will need to understand the concepts covered in the course. The materials include: a complete set of lecture videos, summary notes, problem solving videos, and a full set of exams and solutions. (from ocw.mit.edu)
| Lecture 32 - Linear Transformations and their Matrices |
When we multiply a matrix by an input vector we get an output vector, often in a new space. We can ask what this "linear transformation" does to all the vectors in a space. In fact, matrices were originally invented for the study of linear transformations.
