Reading
Read Sections 1.6 and 1.7 in Kolman and Hill.
- In Section 1.6, pay attention to Examples 9 and 10. We did not cover
examples of underdetermined systems in class, but they do arise quite
frequently. The subsection on Polynomial Interpolation is nice. You can
skip the subsection on Temperature Distribution, and, as usual, anything
about bit matrices.
- In Section 1.7, take note of Theorem 1.10 which shows the algebraic
properties of the inverse combined with other operations.
