Vector and Matrix Algebra ========================= In most real world applications, instead of operating on just a single number, numerical computation is performed on an entire set of numbers. Vector and matrix algebra provides a convenient way to conceptualize the resulting computations into a clean mathematical framework. This chapter provides an overview of vectors and matrices, along with some examples of their usage in practice. .. toctree:: :hidden: :maxdepth: 2 Vectors Matrices Norms Matrix Norms and Condition Numbers
