Staff Review
This lecture explains the more useful and practical way of solving systems of differential equations. Matrix Algebra, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors are used to solve them. Make sure you have a working knowledge of Linear Algebra for this lecture. A very interesting lecture with very real applications, in which multiple examples are actually solved.
