This book teaches algebra and geometry. The authors dedicate chapters to the key issues of matrices, linear equations, matrix algorithms, vector spaces, lines, planes, second-order curves, and elliptic curves.
The text is supported throughout with problems, and the authors have included source code in Python in the book.
