    Matrix

    A rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns.

    Vector

    A matrix with one row and multiple columns.

    Order of a Matrix

    The number of rows and columns a matrix has. For example, a matrix with 3 rows and 4 columns has an order of 3 by 4.

    Identity Matrix

    A matrix where all elements except those on the main diagonal are zero. Elements on the main diagonal are all 1.

    Study Notes

    Principles of Mathematics - Chapter 1: Matrices

    • Matrices are arrays of numbers with dimensions m (rows) by n (columns)
    • A vector can be seen as a 1 x m matrix
    • Matrix order, for example, 4 by 3, signifies 4 rows and 3 columns
    • Matrix elements are denoted as aij, where i represents the row and j represents the column
    • An identity matrix has 1's on the main diagonal and 0's elsewhere; it's used to multiply with any matrix and results in the original matrix
    • Matrix addition: Add corresponding elements of two matrices of the same dimension
    • Matrix addition is commutative and associative
    • Matrix elements must be of the same dimension to add them together
    • Matrix multiplication depends on the number of columns in the first matrix and the number of rows in the second matrix

    Matrix Operations

    • Multiplication by a constant: Multiply all elements of the matrix by the constant
    • Matrix multiplication is not commutative (AB ≠ BA)
    • Order of matrix multiplication is important
    • Only possible to multiply matrices if the number of columns in the first matrix equals the number of rows in the second matrix
