Linear Algebra is fundamental in many areas of mathematics and sciences and has a wide range of applications to many other fields. The necessary theory of matrix arithmetic will be developed. After this we will discuss two other applications of the learned matrix theory. One application of matrix theory is in solving systems of linear equations. The 2nd application of matrix theory is in coding and decoding of messages, including breaking simple codes.
