Are there any resources consisting of a collection of problems on linear algebra for students to practice? I am looking for good interesting problems which test students’ understanding. These questions or examples should be for teaching rather than just testing. The level of difficulty is first year undergraduate.

Hi matqkks, :)

I used Theory and Problems of Linear Algebra by S. Lipschistz when I was doing an introductory linear algebra course. It has lots of solved problems.

Hi matqkks,

There is a new website that has a large number of solved problems in Linear Algebra. It shows full solution steps, and also provides relevant definitions and theorems with the solutions.you can drill down to deeper levels of detail if you wish. Also, you can customize thevproblem by plugging in your own specific values for the particular problem and the website will provide you with a solution to it. The website is Exdraft - University math is easy. You just need to see the pattern. It's free to sign up.

Thread 'How to define vector field?'
Hello! In one book I saw that function ##V## of 3 variables ##V_x, V_y, V_z## (vector field in 3D) can be decomposed in a Taylor series without higher-order terms (partial derivative of second power and higher) at point ##(0,0,0)## such way: I think so: higher-order terms can be neglected because partial derivative of second power and higher are equal to 0. Is this true? And how to define vector field correctly for this case? (In the book I found nothing and my attempt was wrong...
