Lecture 01: Linear system and Gauss elemination,3x3 case. augmented matrix matrix indexing convention column row Gauss elemination and elementary row operations Row echlon form and gauss eleimnation determine solvability from row echelon form case 1 if kth row = idnetiacally zero and b_k not=0, then no solution case 2 if not case 1, then solvable choice of essestial and free variables and Row echelon form counter example of choosing essential variables the wrong way Lecture 02: elaborate on the inconsisntency resulting from wrong chice of free variables examples: traffic. matrix algebra: matrix multiplication
