The bible stays the same: (Axler 1997)
We will be less exploratory, Axler will pretty much tell us. However, we should try to say stuff in the class every single class period.
There is a ban on numbers over 4 on this class.
Best Practices
- Ask questions
- Talk to each other
- Make mistakes
- From Riley: know the Proof Design Patterns
Non-Axler but Important

- group
- matricies
- dot product and cross product
- solving systems
- binary operation
- modular arithmetic
- quotient group
- strong induction
- algebreic mitultiplicity
- geometric multplicity
- matrix adjectives
