Since some of the material might occasionally be recorded, it will be tempting to put off watching the videos until “later”. Even students with the best of intentions find themselves falling behind on the material. Be aware of this and savvy about it – keep up with the lectures, material and the homework assigned every week – do not leave the studying until “later”. - A pdf file providing guidance on writing proofs.
- For those of you interested in applications of linear algebra or abstract algebra, you could surf the web, or consult this website or this website at NASA or this other website at NASA or this other website for items to read. A website at NASA that illustrates applications of category theory (a subfield of abstract algebra) is here.
- 7 Mathematics-related careers voted among top-10 best jobs in 2021!! (In fact, the top-rated job was Data Scientist, which uses tons of linear algebra, both at a superficial level and at a very deep level, and also uses some abstract algebra.)
