Features: This textbook is one of the national planning textbooks for the "11th Five-Year Plan" in general higher education. It includes topics such as matrices, n-dimensional vectors, systems of linear equations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices, and quadratic forms, along with corresponding mathematical experiments. While emphasizing the scientific and systematic nature of the content, the book also focuses on introducing the geometric and applied backgrounds of algebraic concepts to help readers better understand algebraic theory and improve their ability to apply algebraic methods to solve practical problems. A large number of exercises are provided at the end of each chapter, categorized into three difficulty levels to suit readers of different levels, especially those preparing for postgraduate entrance exams. This book is suitable for students of non-mathematics majors in higher education institutions (such as engineering, economics, etc.), as well as self-learners and science and technology workers. It is also one of the national planning textbooks for the "11th Five-Year Plan" in general higher education. The content includes matrices, n-dimensional vectors, systems of linear equations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices, and quadratic forms. This book enhances the description of the geometric background of algebraic concepts and the application background adapted to modern technology, enabling students to better understand and master the concepts while increasing their interest in learning. It also provides software introductions and computer lab guides synchronized with the textbook content, along with corresponding application examples and exercises. Additionally, to meet the needs of postgraduate entrance exams, the book's table of contents is compiled according to the exam syllabus, and the exercises are categorized by difficulty level to suit different needs.
