1.2.8. Week 8 - 10/7

Reading:

• 6.6. LU Decomposition.
• 6.7. Cholesky Decomposition for Positive Definite Systems
• 6.8. (optional) Linear System Applications
• 6.9. Numerical Stability

Video Lectures:

• Section 6.6 - LU Decomposition Update (13:47) Watch this one before the older video on LU decomposition.
• Section 6.6 - LU Decomposition (22:08) Note: LU Decomposition was originally later in this chapter, but was moved forward because it is how MATLAB solves square systems of equations with the left-divide operator. So the section numbers in the video are different from what is currently in the study guide.
• Section 6.7 - Cholesky Decomposition (11:01)
• Optional Section 6.8 - Linear Systems Applications (21:10)
• Section 6.9 - Numerical Stability (25:20)
