Why read it?
1 author picked Linear Algebra as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I like Prof. Cohen's book because it includes computational examples based on Python and NumPy to illustrate each concept. This is the way I like to think about linear algebra concepts.
Yes, it's important to understand the formulas and theoretical ideas, but applying linear algebra operations in the real world will always involve some computational platform and not pen and paper. This is the only book I know that shows readers the practical computational linear algebra in parallel with the theory.
The author provides computational notebooks for each chapter on GitHub, which makes it easy to explore all the material…
