Linear Algebra (Math 232B, Fall 2005)

Course Information


Books on Proofs

The books below are in the spirit of the recommended text "Nuts and Bolts of Proof." If you find that book helpful, you might consider ordering one or more of these from someplace like Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble (these texts are listed in order of my familiarity with them, which may not be the same order I would recommend them in).

Homework Exercises

These are suggested exercises from Johnson/Riess/Arnold, 4th Edition.  Generally, the same problems have the same numbers in the 5th Edition.  Where this is not the case, a slash precedes the number for the 5th Edition.  Also, for the 5th Edition increase the chapter number by 1 for each problem from all but Chapter 1 of the 4th Edition.  So, for example, 2.4.34/36 would be 2.4.34 in the 4th Edition and 3.4.36 in the 5th Edition.  Is that clear?
