Spring 2024
Linear algebra is useful. Practical. Maybe the most applicable math you can learn. It’s at the heart of many computer applications of math (numerical differential equations, computer graphics, big data, machine learning). The Spring 2024 edition of Math 314 will emphasize the practical side of linear algebra.
