520    "This guide is heavy on linear algebra and makes a good 
       supplement to a linear algebra textbook. But, it is 
       assumed that any college student studying linear algebra 
       will also be studying calculus and differential equations,
       maybe statistics. Therefore it makes sense to apply the 
       Octave skills learned for linear algebra to these subjects
       as well. Chapters 3 and 5 have several applications to 
       calculus, differential equations, and statistics. The 
       overarching objective is to enhance our understanding of 
       calculus and linear algebra using Octave as a tool for 
       computations. For the most part, we will not address 
       issues of accuracy and round-off error in machine 
       arithmetic. For more details about numerical issues, refer
       to [1], which also contains many useful Octave examples. 
       To get started, read Chapter 1, without worrying too much 
       about any of the mathematics you don't yet understand. 
       After grasping the basics, you should be able to move into
       any of the chapters or sections that interest you. Every 
       chapter concludes with a set of problems, some of which 
       are routine practice, and some of which are more extended 
       applied projects. Most examples assume the reader is 
       familiar with the mathematics involved. In a few cases, 
       more detailed explanation of relevant theorems is given by
       way of motivation, but there are no proofs. Refer to the 
       linear algebra and calculus books listed in the references
       for background on the underlying mathematics. In the 
       spirit of openness, all references listed are available 
       for free under GNU or Creative Commons licenses and can be
       accessed using the links provided."--Open Textbook Library
