Preface Preface

This document was created to serve as a set of lecture notes for Advanced Engineering Mathematics (MATH 301) at West Virginia Wesleyan College. The goal of this course is to become familiar with basic concepts in linear algebra and multivariable calculus. As such, the course is naturally divided into two more or less independent parts: Part I and Part II.

This document also endeavors to include many examples that use code via Sage Cells (cloud.sagemath.com), since many computations in linear algebra and multivariable calculus are tedious at best to do by hand. The programming languages used are Octave (www.gnu.org/software/octave/index) and Sage (sagemath.org), which are both free and open source systems. Familiarity with these programming languages is neither assumed nor required for this course.
