3B1B Notes”

Why?

Because we want to get better at math, specifically Linear Algebra

What goal is this supporting?

Ostensibly, the data science goal. However, I believe I could make a case for this also helping with the “problem solving” side of interview questions for software engineering…

NOTES

The Determinant | Essence of Linear Algebra, Chapter 6

“The Factor by which a linear transformation changes any area” “The factor by which area is changed, after applying a linear transformation.”

  1. Have shape.
  2. Apply transformation
  3. How much did the shape change? The factor by which it changed is called the determinant/
