Hi everyone!

I wanted to share this quick thought that has really helped me with linear algebra;

Let's say: P = (1, 0)

This vector/point is simply the result of scaling the basis vectors ihat [1, 0] and jhat [0, 1]:

Now, if we apply a transformation to the basis vectors, let's say a 90 degree rotation, the same process applies. For example, after the transformations each basis vector lands at column, ihat [0, 1], jhat [-1, 0].

Scaling this with our vector, [1, 0] gives us [0, 1].

So, a transformation transforms the basis vectors and our vector scales it, that's it :)

Enjoy!

Hi guys,

A couple of months ago I posed here about Linear Algebra Visualizer and today I'm super excited to share with you the latest version which now includes matrix composition, the ability to add a translation matrix and an expanded Step by Step explanation.

Have a look at the video above for a detailed demo!

PS: These new features are available as In App Purchases but you get 1 week as a free trail so you can always check it out and cancel if you are not happy.

Thank you all for your support, it means a lot!

Enjoy and let me know what you think in the comments! What have you seen students struggled with when it comes to linear algebra?

Hi everyone!

A couple of months ago I posted about my app, Linear Algebra Visualiser, which helps you visualise linear transformations. Great for people who are starting out in graphics development.

I'm very excited to show you guys the latest version which includes matrix composition and the ability to add translations.

This is very useful because it allows you to apply the classic TRS matrix and get a visual understanding as to why it's commonly applied that way. You can also apply it backwards and see what happens otherwise.

Have a look at the demo above :)

If you are interested in the app have a look below:

Hi guys,

Super excited about this update to Linear Algebra Visualiser - which now includes matrix composition, the ability to add a translation matrix and an expanded Step by Step explanation.

PS 2: For people who were Beta Testers - I need some more time to setup the ability to give out offer codes (it’s all complicated with Apple).

Thank you all for your support, it means a lot!

Hello everyone,

You might have seen my previous posts about the Linear Algebra Visualizer app (the app that helps with visualising linear transformations).

You guys have already been amazing with your support which is why I'd love to invite you as a beta tester.

I'm currently working on expanding the app to include affine transformations and matrix compositions but I really want to get it right and for it to continue to be a great learning tool.

This will be specific to the Apple platforms - iOS, iPad and MacOS - and all you need is the TestFlight app by Apple and fill in your details in the form below: https://forms.gle/98dHacjaAeszhNvr6

(As a Beta tester you will also get the future premium content for free)

Thank you and I look forward to your feedback!

Hi smokers!

Been wanting to learn about smoking for a while and I want to try to spend this summer smoking.

Have been reading the amazingribs.com and tried to implement the two zone with a snake thing for this chicken.

For a first smoke Im pretty happy with the result. Next time I need to adjust the amount of coal and also have the starter coal be hotter.

Tried using a smoke box but I think the flavour might be a bit too intense but not sure.

Any suggestions let me know in the comments :)

Hi guys,

Just wanted to say thank you for all the positive feedback from my first post about Linear Algebra Visualizer.

Especially from u/LongjumpingEar7568 and u/Ron-Erez who suggested adding the eigenvectors and values. This is now complete and I’m excited to share it with you guys in this community.

This update includes:

- Explore eigenvectors and eigenvalues visually

- Polygon presets

- Enter any 2x2 matrix

Thanks for your supports and let me know of any feedback in the comments please :)

Hi guys,

A couple of weeks ago I posted about the Linear Algebra Visualizer app on Apples platform. I got a few comments that you’d love to see it on the web.

Well, Im happy to let you guys know it’s now available on the web so you can use it on your PC or Android device.

Any feedback let me know in the comments please :)

Hi guys!

I'm a software engineer who mainly works on mobile applications for the iPhone. For quite a while Ive been interested in graphics but I've always struggled with matrices in linear algebra. Specifically, being able to visualise the linear transformations.

To help myself with this I built an application inspired by 3blue1browns video on linear transformations as I found those helped with being able to visualise what was going on.

The app lets you plot points on a 2D coordinate system and apply various transformations to it (which are animated). It also explains how the new point is calculated and some other useful bits and pieces.

If you are interested, the app is available for free on the Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/linear-algebra-visualizer/id6763524968?mt=12 ,

Also, any feedback would be really useful. For example, would you find a tool like this helpful? Is there anything missing? Does it make sense? What have you struggled with or seen people struggle with when it comes to linear algebra?

Thanks and let me know in the comments 😄

Im not looking to promote it here but rather looking for any feedback you guys might have.

Would you find a tool like this helpful? Is there anything missing? Does it make sense? What have you struggled with when it comes to linear algebra?
