This book presents the main concepts of linear algebra from the
viewpoint of applied scientists such as computer scientists and
engineers, without compromising on mathematical rigor. Based on
the idea that computational scientists and engineers need, in
both research and professional life, an understanding of
theoretical concepts of mathematics in order to be able to
propose research advances and innovative solutions, every
concept is thoroughly introduced and is accompanied by its
informal interpretation. Furthermore, most of the theorems
included are first rigorously proved and then shown in practice
by a numerical example. When appropriate, topics are presented
also by means of pseudocodes, thus highlighting the computer
implementation of algebraic theory.

It is structured to be accessible to everybody, from students
of pure mathematics who are approaching algebra for the first
time to researchers and graduate students in applied sciences
who need a theoretical manual of algebra to successfully
perform their research. Most importantly, this book is designed
to be ideal for both theoretical and practical minds and to
offer to both alternative and complementary perspectives to
study and understand linear algebra.
