MHB Resource for learning linear algebra

Click For Summary
Khan Academy lacks a course on linear algebra, prompting a request for alternative online resources. Recommendations include Gilbert Strang's lectures on YouTube, which are highly regarded for their clarity. Additionally, users suggest the textbook "Linear Algebra with Applications" by Keith Nicholson for its comprehensive exercises and accompanying slides. Another option mentioned is "Linear Algebra Done Wrong" by Sergei Treil, suitable for those seeking a more advanced perspective. These resources provide valuable support for anyone looking to learn linear algebra effectively.

I want to take some courses that involve heavy math, so I have been learning maths on the khan academy site: precalculus, calculus, statistics etc. But one fundamental area of maths the khan academy site doesn't have is a course on linear algebra. I really need to learn and use linear algebra in my work.
Can anyone point me to an online resource for learning linear algebra that is as good and concise as the khan academy site? I would love any help.
thanks

Here.
 
You can find some free textbooks here and here. I've been using "Linear Algebra with Applications" by Keith Nicholson. It's a relatively standard introductory textbook with lots of exercises and slides for each topic (you may have to request slides from the publisher). A more advanced textbook (though it also covers the material from the beginning) is "Linear Algebra Done Wrong" by Sergei Treil.
 
Thanks. Appreciate your help
 
I am studying the mathematical formalism behind non-commutative geometry approach to quantum gravity. I was reading about Hopf algebras and their Drinfeld twist with a specific example of the Moyal-Weyl twist defined as F=exp(-iλ/2θ^(μν)∂_μ⊗∂_ν) where λ is a constant parametar and θ antisymmetric constant tensor. {∂_μ} is the basis of the tangent vector space over the underlying spacetime Now, from my understanding the enveloping algebra which appears in the definition of the Hopf algebra...
