Concise but yet clear explanation,hats off!!

[@avaciprin492]

how does he write on the back of it but it's legible from the front. is he mirroring his writing or what

[@masteroogwaysballsack5068]

bruh, exactly what i'm wondering

[@jchord8314]

Big thank from Indonesia🙂 Usefull

[@FloThePro1231]

where do you go n->n+1 for induction?

[@Karuan]

That's what I was thinking

[@paulanjeru1043]

Thank you so much for this! It really helped me understand the proof :)

[@pavanvadrevu6912]

Thank you so much. This helped me prove the general case.

What's the purpose of this?

[@ArthurParzygnat]

Thank you for your question. I believe the answer is contained in the description to this video: "This is an intermediate step in trying to find a polynomial that interpolates several points, which itself is used for computing f(A) for a function f defined on the eigenvalues of the matrix A." Does this answer your question?

[@ArthurParzygnat]

I should mention there are several other usages of the Vandermonde matrix, but this is the application I have in mind.

[@bonsummers2657]

@@ArthurParzygnat Ok, thank you for the explanation.
