any chance someone has the student manual for david lay's linear algebra and its applications 4th?

checked pretty much everywhere, seems only 3rd ed is circulating. just want to be able to check answers for the occasional even that I decide to attempt.

widely regarded as best book for linear alg.

That would be Halmos' "Finite Dimensional Vector Spaces"

For applications that would be Lax
For theory that would be Shilov/Axler/Halmos

Your is just some no name $200 scam book pushed onto universities.

Found, what I eventually learned to be, an old first edition of this in my Grandad's house years ago. Took me far too long to work out what these scribbles on the backing were. Pic related.

Use a real book

This book is used by my school. It has absolutely no rigor, and all the exercises are essentially "put this matrix in echelon form and tell me what conclusions you draw from that."
It won't teach you the important lessons that you should draw from linear algebra.
>>5854026
On the other hand, this book is NOT for someone learning linear algebra for the first time. It is very good, though.
