Linear algebra occupies an important place in the world of mathematics and science because it is an extremely versatile and useful subject. It rewards those who study it with powerful computational tools, lessons about how mathematical theory is built, examples for later study in other classes, and much more. Functional Linear Algebra is a unique text authored to address the need for a one-term linear algebra course when students have only had calculus. It does no assume students have had a proofs course. This book specifically addresses how to use Mathematica, but feel free to use whichever technological tool best suits your needs.
