Watkins, Will; Taylor, Monty – Collegiate Microcomputer, 1989
Demonstrates how spreadsheets can be used to implement linear system solving algorithms in college mathematics classes. Lotus 1-2-3 is described, a linear system of equations is illustrated using spreadsheets, and the interplay between applications, computations, and theory is discussed. (four references) (LRW)
