📚 Resources

Here, we’ll provide links to past exams, as well as other materials online that contain practice problems and alternative explanations of the course material. Find anything that you think is helpful or interesting? Let us know and we’ll add it here.

Past Exams

Find all past exams and solutions at exams.eecs245.org.

Videos

Several supplemental videos have been recorded for this class, and all of them can be found here. When relevant, you can find these videos linked in the relevant sections of the course notes, the course homepage, and assignment solutions.

Content from Math 124

Suraj is also teaching a new linear algebra course for first-year engineering students, Math 124. It is a much more introductory course than EECS 245, but its content is likely to be useful to you too.

Textbooks

Note that some of these resources will use different notation and terminology than we do in the course. Some examples include:

  • the image of a matrix \(A\), \(\text{im}(A)\), which we call the column space of \(A\), \(\text{colsp}(A)\).
  • the kernel of a matrix \(A\), \(\text{ker}(A)\), which we call the null space of \(A\), \(\text{nullsp}(A)\).
  • the nullity of a matrix \(A\), \(\text{nullity}(A)\), which we call the dimension of the null space of \(A\), \(\dim(\text{nullsp}(A))\).

The one textbook that I’ve referenced the most while developing EECS 245 is Introduction to Linear Algebra by Gilbert Strang. (The textbook itself isn’t free, but this link contains links to several chapters and old exams.) You can find many of his videos online.

The following textbooks are more similar in style to our course notes, in that they’re (somewhat) designed from the perspective of machine learning.
