Linear Algebra or Analysis?

cordyceps

Hey guys,

I want to self-study some math this year. Would you recommend linear algebra or mathematical analysis first, or does it even make a difference? (If analysis, which text would you recommend? Shilov's Elementary Real and Complex Analysis, Rosenlicht's Introduction to Analysis, or Apostol's Mathematical Analysis?) Thanks a bunch.[/I]

Any real study of analysis requires a fair bit of linear algebra.

*Howers*

What he means is have linear algebra down cold before you attempt to do analysis. Linear algebra is a big part of real analysis, especially once you deal with mutlivariables. Also, getting used to rigorous mathematics is best accomplished by studying linear algebra.

Alright. I'll start working on LA then. Thanks a lot.

thats like asking which is better, lafite roTHSCHILD OR LATour. those are all superb.
