The numerical solutions of many types of problems are generally obtained by solving approximating linear algebraic systems. Moreover, in solving a nonlinear problem, one may replace it by a sequence of linear systems providing progressively improved approximations. For the study of these linear systems of equations a geometric terminology with the compact symbolism of vectors and matrices is useful. A resume of the basic principles of higher algebra necessary for the development of the material to follow is therefore included. / "A Paper." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Paul J. McCarthy, Professor Directing Paper. / "May, 1958." / At head of title: Florida State University. / Typescript. / Includes bibliographical references.
