@@judepope6196 damn I hate matrices

[@HackionSTx]

@@yoyolol22 I too hated matrices and geometry (here in Brazil we study GAAL, which means, Analytical Geometry and Linear Algebra). But think of matrices as a collection of vectors, say column vectors. What I mean is, instead of studying or using a vector at a time we use a collection of them at once. Think of a vector as a single, very well defined and important, purpose. With this collection, say a toolbox, you could do amazing things. It may not help, but it did help me start loving LinAlg. Again, reinforcing the idea. Instead of using only one tool (a number), we can use a lot of them at once. That's why matrices appear everywhere, even in probability and statistics. An example is the multivariate Gaussian distribution.

A space which follows rules like components addition and components multiplication is simple know as a sub space think about it.

These videos were originally published in 2005 as quarter screen (320x240) RealMedia files. Years later we remastered them in Standard Definition. The tape for lecture 4 was lost, so remastering was not possible. Sadly, the quarter screen version is all we have left of it.
