In this free course, matrices are used as a concise way of representing systems of linear equations which occur frequently in mathematics. Section 1 looks at simultaneous linear equations in two and three unknowns and then generalises the ideas to systems of linear equations. Section 2 develops a strategy for solving systems of linear equations. Section 3 looks at the algebra of matrices and shows that matrices can be thought of as a generalisation of vectors. Section 4 introduces the inverse of a matrix. Section 5 uses systems of linear equations to introduce the determinant of a square matrix.

this is very useful to the students who are in any graduate level. Highly useful for graduate students! Simplifies techniques, essential for understanding linear equations and matrices."

good enough but need some more syllabus to encourage the students to increase their knowledge . To overcome it you have to work on by giving some extra information by adding those content in website or in the course page
