MATH300 Advanced Discrete Mathematics

This course is an introductory course in linear algebra that balances computation and theory. Topics include the solution of systems of linear equations using Gaussian and Gauss-Jordan elimination, matrices and determinants. Other topics covered are vector spaces, inner product spaces, linear transformations, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Also introduced is the Gram-Schmidt orthonormalization process, and Least Squares and Fourier approximations. The course is divided between lecture and hands on work in a computer lab using a symbolic math software package.
