Features: This book is a learning guide companion to "Linear Algebra" (4th Edition) edited by the Department of Applied Mathematics, Tongji University. It is primarily intended for students using this textbook but can also serve as a teaching reference for instructors. One of the book's compilers is also an editor of the 4th Edition of "Linear Algebra," while the other compiler has long been teaching linear algebra courses at Tongji University. To align with teaching needs, the book is organized in the same chapter order as the 4th Edition of "Linear Algebra." Each chapter includes seven sections: basic requirements, content summary, key learning points, problem-solving guidance, example analysis and supplements, selected problem solutions, and additional exercises (with answers and hints). The "problem-solving guidance" demonstrates the compilers' deep understanding of the course content and their rich teaching experience; the "example analysis" fully explores the role of examples and helps readers master the skill of generalizing from specific cases; the "selected problem solutions" emphasize explaining the thinking behind solving problems, and multiple solutions to a single problem contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the material. Compared to the textbook, this book has a certain degree of independence and can be used as a reference book for linear algebra courses in engineering and other non-mathematics disciplines, as well as a review guide for postgraduate entrance exams.
