This is apparently a controversial methodology. But don't let anyone tell you it teaches "fake" linear algebra. The gist is this: practical applications over abstract theory. Academics complain all it teaches you is how to manipulate matrices. Manipulating matrices is what gets you a job.

Gilbert Strang is the best Lin. Alg. Teacher
Needed to learn College Linear Algebra for an OMSA course. Didn't like the prerequisite on EdX, so I followed Gilbert Strang's OpenSourceWare video series. I just had to buy the book... excellent videos, excellent book. Better than the course I took in college.

Great book, highly recommended for anyone looking to work with Nth dimensional data
Great book, Strang does well making the concepts understandable even if you aren't super familiar with upper level math. Highly recommend the section on eigenvalues and eigenvectors, great for understanding Single Value Decomposition and Principle Component Analysis.

Excellent text for math majors
Comprehensive college level text for those interested linear algebra. Author is probably the foremost expert in this field with over 60 years of teaching experience at MIT. Following along the course matter with his U Tube lectures is a must!

Excelente livro, muito didático e com excelentes exercícios ao final das seções de cada capítulo. Ainda acompanha o material, vídeos-aula do professor Strang no MIT. Recomendo fortemente a compra do livro.
