Abstract
Many applications of linear algebra require careful, and sometimes rather tedious, calculations by hand. As the reader will be aware, these can often be subject to error. The use of a computer is therefore called for. As far as computation in algebra is concerned, there are several packages that have been developed specifically for this purpose. In this chapter we give a brief introduction, by way of a tutorial, to the package ‘LinearAlgebra’ in MAPLE 7. Having mastered the techniques, the reader may freely check some of the answers to previous questions!
