[edit] Abstract
When I started teaching the subject I found three kinds of texts. There were applied mathematics books that avoid proofs and covered the linear algebra only as needed for their applications. There were advanced books that assumed students could understand their elegant proofs and also understand how to answer the homework questions having seen only one or two examples. And, there were books that spent a good part of the semester doing elementary things such as multiplying matrices and computing determinants, only to suddenly change level to working with definitions and proofs.
