Description (last modified by jason) (diff)
Jason Grout, Rob Beezer, Robert Bradshaw, and William Stein have mostly written a rather extensive thematic tutorial on linear algebra for Sage (for inclusion in the HLA = Handbook of Linear Algebra, 2nd edition). It has a creative commons license. This ticket is for getting the tutorial into Sage itself.
The PDF version of this chapter is here: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/jason/sage-HLA2.pdf

I added the main patch, as well as a second patch that I used to patch Sage's local copy of sphinx to generate "nicer" tex output. I think you can probably safely ignore the sphinx patch.

At this point, I think someone just needs to scan through to see if there are big problems in any of the formats. Long-term things would be expanding it by uncommenting a lot of the examples we had to cut due to page limits, or rearranging things so that the examples are inline instead of grouped at the end of each section.

Oh, and making the examples live in the html docs, and making function names link to the function documentation.
