A supplement for undergraduate and first-year graduate students majoring in mathematics, statistics or related areas. Provides 200 problems arranged in the approximate order and level of some commonly used linear algebra textbooks. Well-known theorems are excluded but expected to be used freely. Only a few problems need the Jordan canonical forms for their solutions. Hints and solutions are in the back, guarded only by the student's desire to learn.
