Textbook: <br> https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Linear-Algebra-5th-Johnson/dp/0201658593/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_14_img_0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0C3W0715GTXQDGBTRPBF <br> The textbook used in this section is <b>out of print</b> and hence cannot be ordered by the UVM bookstore. Therefore, you should <b>purchase it online on your own</b>. Please do so <b>as soon as possible</b> to avoid a situation where you would not have access to the textbook when you need it.<br> <br> 2. Use of Matlab:<br> Three out of five projects in this course will require use of Matlab. While prior exposure to Matlab would be helpful, it is not required. One Matlab help session will be offered (if needed) before Project 2. If you have never used Matlab before, you should be prepared to learn a few of its most basic commands on your own, using Matlab resources that will be specifically listed for each assignment where Matlab will be required. These resources include the Appendix in the textbook and a Matlab Primer posted at the above webpage. You should also plan for asking questions to the instructor at least a few days before the projects are due, as well as for attending the Matlab help session. <br>
