We introduce the Wronskian of a set of n-1 continuously differentiable functions. We'll see that the Wronskian, which is the determinant of a matrix made up of the functions and their derivatives, can tell us about the linear independence of the set of functions. We'll also do an example of using the Wronskian to show a set of functions is linearly independent. #linearalgebra
