- Been featured in countless open text repositories and libraries.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Been used by ~40,000 students with Lyryx online assessment.<\/span><\/li>\n

This text has seen contributions from many internal and external sources over the past decade, but Lyryx is immeasurably grateful to Kenneth Kuttler and other substantial contributors including Ilijas Farah of York University, and the Version 2023-A subject matter contributor Chris Leary of SUNY Geneseo. <\/span><\/p>\nHere’s to another 10 years of open with “A First Course in Linear Algebra”!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nABOUT THIS TEXTBOOK<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nA First Course in Linear Algebra<\/em>, originally by K.
