"Linear Algebra: Algorithms, Applications, and Techniques, Fourth Edition, begins with the concrete and computational, and guides the reader through the major applications. After an introductory chapter on properties of real numbers and proof techniques, the next three chapters address the basics: matrices, vector spaces, and linear transformations. The final four cover eigenvalues, applications, and Euclidean inner products. Appendices on Jordan canonical forms and Markov chains are included for further study."--Page 4 of cover.
