Thats such a brilliant way of explaining. Thats also how i explain things to myself too. It works and listening to someone as intelligent as him teach this way is really enjoyable
"But now for the most important step: WHY..." This is what sets apart a math teacher from a great educator. 90% of people teaching GJ elimination wouldn't bother to show you why it works, thus creating a legion of students who act more like computers than mathematicians. What Strang does should be considered the standard, and its deeply satisfying to learn from him because of his standard of decency; that is, to respect students' intelligence and curiosity.
Apparently it's hard to see a teachers who understand the subject and explains it to student, but Dr. Strang just know exactly what he's doing, love it!
Thank you for these lectures. I took Stage 2 Linear Algebra in 1980. These lectures make it sound simpler. I think Gilbert Strang is the Richard Feynman of linear algebra.
This man is awesome. Like every good teachers, he has the strength to refrain from getting angry at students for not understanding right away what comes from his fingers as music comes out relentlessly from a loudspeaker ! May he be live long and happy ! 🎨
Over a decade ago I watched this lecture as a high school student and thought he was just playing with numbers in different ways and I was like "why bother it was just a matrix multiplication". Now I've got my Ph.D. and I looked back at his lecture and realized how important those different ways are and how enormously helpful they're for dealing with matrices later on. The mathematical intuition it brings cannot be appreciated enough.
This teacher, oh boy I can`t remember his name... Well... I really appreciate how he uses intuition to teach Linear Algebra. I'd like to have had classes with him at the school. I would have saved many hours of my life studying for silly tests. Sometimes I feel like studying Engineering made me less smart than I was as child. Sometimes I can really know that my teachers are trying to kill my creativity and coercing me to learn the hardway, nor the better way nor the easy way: just the way they had learned or the only way the can teach.
This professor is so wonderful! He presents each new bit of information in such a way that makes it seem intuitive to me and I just love listening to him lecture!
I got an an A on my undergrad Linear Algebra class but I am still learning a great deal by watching these lectures and reading Mr. Strang's book. A great big thank you to Professor Strang and MIT.
It should be called Jordan Elimination but people give credit to Gauss because Gauss knew about the method but didn't publish it. Jordan alone made all the advancements in the Matrix theory.
26:37 this is for those who did not understand the first reasoning behind why the inverse was not possible. A=[1 3;2 6] X is supposed to be the identity matrix so that A^-1A=I You can approach it this way: A*(1st col. of X)= [1;0] which is same as 1st col. of A* X11+ 2nd col of A*X12 but the problem is that since the first column and second column of A are dependent vectors (that is [1;2] and [2,6] differ only in length and not in the direction. It's impossible that a linear combination of them can result in a vector that has a different slope (as is [1;0]) I hope this helps.
He is actually providing the algorithm behind the matrix operation used in coding. Amazing and extraordinary skills. now I'll be able to understand how to play with Maths.Thanks a lot Sir.
I remember my college years when sometimes I really needed to go back in time and check what the teacher just said, when the material was hard for me to understand, or I needed to draw a better conclusion. It's great that we have videos nowadays.
Some key points I learned from this section: --- Five ways to perform matrix multiplication --- When a square matrix is irreversible and why --- The concepts of row space and column space --- The Gauss-Jordan method to find the inverse of a matrix and why it works
I learned Linear Algebra a few years back, but I’m enjoying these course lectures as a refresher. I think I’ve forgotten, but I’m gratified to see how quickly it comes back and how familiar it all is upon reviewing. And Gil is a wonderful educator.
Great , great lecture because Prfof Strang elucidates and focuses on the key ideas and the intuitive meaning - not just the mechanics as most books and tutorials do. Thanks Prof. Strang for sharing your great mind and your skills as a great educator!

@31:20 singular matrices take some non zero vector x to zero and there is no way A inverse can recover it, that's why A inverse does not exist. great explanation.
Got it.. Ax=0 Where A is singular matrix. If suppose Ainverse exists Then Inv(A)Ax=0*Inv(A) Ix=0 x=0 But x is non zero Non zero =zero Not possible Hence Inv(A) does not exist.

One of the best teachers I've had pleasure to learn from - only online, but thanks to quality of content and ease of acces it feels almost as good. THANK YOU MIT!
This is exactly how linear algebra should be taught. Instead of getting hung up on computations or abstractions, he shows the beautiful intuition behind it. Yes, it’s very important to be able to work in the abstract when you start getting to higher level math, but it’s so much easier to do that when you first understand it intuitively.
i studied these things some 3 years ago and was pretty good at that. but never ever i have gone to such depths to understand these, this guy is a awesome.
I have always been afraid of thinking about formalizing everything using matrix and thank god, I found Prof. Strang. Thank to you and your lectures, I feel like I am confident of using matrix more than ever.
From the bottom of my heart I want to thank MIT and the professors for creating such beautiful and elegant videos. They are hands down the only reason I understand this topic because my professor unfortunately can explain it as clearly as you guys have presented it or at least the way he presents the lecture isn’t my style.
The best thing in the first 3 lectures is the new way you look at a matrix multiplication as linear combination of either rows or columns which makes more complicated topics easier to understand.
It helps, also, if they have a unique personality, like this guy does. I watched all these linear algebra videos and it was a pleasure watching this professor in action because it was entertaining. No disrespect.
Absolute masterclass. I'm trying to learn some linear algebra so I can teach myself quantum mechanics, and I think I may have stumbled upon one of the greatest resources out there.
Great lecture, and what I can commit is just 'like it' and 'comment'. Without any payment like other MIT students, This is huge opportunity. Thanks for sharing this greatness with world. As we grateful, let's do study hard. :)
Most of us trying to learn math are often not made aware of the fact that Math is a tool for understanding how the world works and it's not just the computations that make up the god damn thing. I am amazed by this way of teaching, in which the professor asks the question why and gives it much more importance than all the nitty gritties of how. At 33:44, the professor even points it out. I don't know why all the professors can't seem to see the learning process in the same way. Hats off to this amazing teacher!
33:01 after watching the 3blue1brown serie and being on this video on this serie I'm a huge fan of columns, and find they make much more sense than rows. If you want to understand the geometrical meaning of linear algebra I recommend everyone to watch the 3blue1brown playlist, everything you use on linear algebra has a geometrical equivalent, why matrices that have determinant equal to 0 doesn't have an inverse, how linear transformations (matrices) modify space, how the basis vectors generates the space, how the determinant of a linear transformation is the factor by which the area of something in that space changes, and so forth.
That's exactly what I did! I love how 2blue1brown describes everything geometrically! I was having trouble understanding some of this stuff in these lectures, but it all makes sense now.
Thanks very much I finally have a clear pictures of inverse of matrix, what it means, how it was produced, etc.. You are such a good teacher, if one day I can go to MIT I'll definitely visit you.
for anyone confused about the explanation of the computation of the rows and columns of C: > To compute a column of C, multiply all rows of A by a column/vector of B, aka sum of dot product of rows of A against column of B. The resulting column of C is a linear combination of the columns of A. > To compute a row of C, multiply all columns of B by a row of A, aka sum of dot product of row of A against columns of B. The resulting row of C is a linear combination of the rows of B.
The column by row example at around 14 mins really hit home with the whole linear combination point. Something so simple can flick a switch in your head so it all makes sense, so kudos.
I wish I knew about this professor before. The best explanation. I remember I did gauss jordan elimination back in university but never understood why even are we doing it.. thank you mit for posting it.
note: there are 5 ways to think of matrix multiplication. 1. cij=Sum[aik*bkj,{k,1,n}] 2. (Matrix*column=column), Columns of C are combination of columns of A. 3. (row*Matrix=row), Rows of C are combination of rows of B. 4. AB=sum of (columns of A)(rows of B). 5. We can cut matrix into blocks.
While discussing 4th way of matrix multiplication, gives subtle hints so that it'll strike you that matrix multiplication is actually about the inner product of the column vectors of the 2 matrices (a^T×b). What an absolute legend.
Being quite about matrix multiplication about rest of the day is what i need at min 20. This guy know how to make a good joke and being helpful with it. Thanks Strang!
I'm watching these lectures in 2024 and I cannot believe how this wonderful mathematician explains things in a way that you actually understand rather than just memorizing formulas and stuff.
Somehow, I managed to forget all that. Now, I have watched this lecture 3 times with an interval of one week. After that I should never forget how to find inverse :)
Knowledge is like the leaves of a tree. If your branches are weak, the leaves will wither away. Work on your branches and the leaves will be strongly connected to the branches.
I have done my masters and plans for a phd, but I have come to know that my linear algebra knowlegde fails in my research, Man what i have learnt is nothing.... I need to scarifice my summers listening to these perfect videos.. These guys are really luCky getting concepts in undergrad level......... The third world countries graduates needs to work more inorder to compensate the difference in concepts with developed countries graduates. Thank you very much...
One easy way to understand matrix multiplication using Machine Learning Classification strategy: 1. Rows of C are combinations of rows of B: just treat it as classification with one example but mutiple classifiers; 2. Columns of C are combinations of columns of A: just treat it as classification with multiple examples but only one classifier; 3. sumOf(Columns of A * Rows of B): jut treat it as classification with multiple examples and mutiple classifiers but should be added up with all features in data examples.
I heartily agree! When I took linear algebra at Penn State in winter term 1976-7, I had such a hard time with it. I think now it was the approach (too analytical) and the lack of time I put into the concepts (too much time on details). I don't like getting so much thrown at me. I like to mull over the concepts and place them into my longterm memory. Cliff Notes also help!

I am having the same problem
I hate myself I cannot remember. I have friends over 25 and still remember what they studied at school. I don't know how come they donot forget
Knowledge is like the leaves of a tree. If your branches are weak, the leaves will wither away. Work on your branches and the leaves will be strongly connected to the branches.
Do a few problems guys that might help.
From hating Linear to loving it .... this man is a gem ❤
DR. Strang thank you for another great lecture on matrices and their inverses.
These recitations are actually very good. It is helpful to quickly revise the concepts.
I have huge respect for him, he teaches in a way to make the subject interesting.
Wonderful lecture series Pro. Strang. Hats off. Explanation of the intuition is great, which lot of others can't.
Tip - Turn mono audio On in the windows 10 audio settings for better audio
What helped me understand the statement at 9:10 was by using an example. Say A=[1 2 and B = [2
3 4] 3]. A*B can be though of as 2*[1 + 3*[2
3] 4]
Passionate teacher who walks you through the sessions.
This man is a beast!!! I love when he says, OK 👌 He’s extremely clear and detailed! I wish I had professors like him🙏
I have done my masters and plans for a phd, but I have come to know that my linear algebra knowlegde fails in my research, Man what i have learnt is nothing.... I need to scarifice my summers listening to these perfect videos.. These guys are really luCky getting concepts in undergrad level......... The third world countries graduates needs to work more inorder to compensate the difference in concepts with developed countries graduates.
Thank you very much...
In windows 10 you can force mono sound:
Go to settings [win+i] > Accessibility > Sound; and here you have a toggle for combining both channels.
I love how every lecture so far they managed to come up with a new and creative way to record sound. It's cute buy annoying.
For the first time in my life that understand what the heck is Gauss-Jordan idea! Thanks Mr. Strang
It's feeling like I m in MIT and great respect for prof.Strang
One easy way to understand matrix multiplication using Machine Learning Classification strategy: 1. Rows of C are combinations of rows of B: just treat it as classification with one example but mutiple classifiers; 2. Columns of C are combinations of columns of A: just treat it as classification with multiple examples but only one classifier; 3. sumOf(Columns of A * Rows of B): jut treat it as classification with multiple examples and mutiple classifiers but should be added up with all features in data examples.
"If there was an inverse to this dopey matrix" I'm going to start calling Matrices dopey lol
I heartily agree! When I took linear algebra at Penn State in winter term 1976-7, I had such a hard time with it. I think now it was the approach (too analytical) and the lack of time I put into the concepts (too much time on details). I don't like getting so much thrown at me. I like to mull over the concepts and place them into my longterm memory. Cliff Notes also help!
