Linear Algebra

The focus of this exercise is on linear algebra using Python. There are both pen-and-paper exercises and coding exercises using Numpy. We believe that learning both in parallel gives you the best opportunities for understanding and applying essential linear algebra skills needed for the course.

Learning goals

After this week's exercises, you should be able to:

Reason about and apply matrix multiplication through Python.
Reason about and apply elementary operations (elementwise addition/multiplication, transpose, inverse, determinant) on matrices through Python.
Solve linear systems of equations in Python using the matrix inverse.
Notice that this week contains a mandatory exercise (look for the star in the header of each task, as shown below)
