Analytical Geometry & Linear Algebra – II

  • Course name: Analytical Geometry & Linear Algebra – II
  • Code discipline: CSE204
  • Subject area: Math

Short Description

This course covers matrix theory and linear algebra, emphasizing topics useful in other disciplines. Linear algebra is a branch of mathematics that studies systems of linear equations and the properties of matrices. The concepts of linear algebra are extremely useful in physics, data sciences, and robotics. Due to its broad range of applications, linear algebra is one of the most widely used subjects in mathematics.
