线性代数

*Linear Algebra 线性代数*
*An Introduction to Mathematical Discourse 数学话语导论*

This book requires that you are familiar with calculus. This subject is covered by the wikibook Calculus.

这本书要求你熟悉微积分。维基教科书《微积分》涵盖了这个主题。

　　The book was designed specifically for students who had not previously been exposed to mathematics as mathematicians view it. That is, as a subject whose goal is to *rigorously* prove theorems starting from clear consistent definitions. This book attempts to build students up from a background where mathematics is simply a tool that provides useful calculations to the point where the students have a grasp of the clear and precise nature of mathematics. A more detailed discussion of the prerequisites and goal of this book is given in the introduction.

　　这本书是专门为那些以前没有接触过数学的学生设计的，因为他们是数学家。也就是说，作为一个目标是从清晰一致的定义开始严格证明定理的学科。这本书试图建立学生从一个背景，数学只是一个工具，提供有用的计算点，学生有一个清晰和精确的数学性质的掌握。引言中对本书的先决条件和目标进行了更详细的讨论。
