Introduction to Matrices

Matrices are a fundamental mathematical structure, a rectangular array of


numbers. They are widely used across mathematics, science, and
engineering, essential for representing and manipulating data compactly.
What is a Matrix?
A matrix is a rectangular grid of elements arranged in m rows
a¡¡ a¡¢ a¡£
and n columns. These elements can be numbers, functions, or
expressions.
a¢¡ a¢¢ a¢£
For example, a 3x3 matrix has 9 elements, each indexed by its
a£¡ a£¢ a££
specific row and column position.
