Abstract
Chapter 1 reviewed simple linear regression in algebraic notation and showed that the notation for models involving several variables is very cumberome.
This chapter introduces matrix notation and all matrix operations that are used in this text. Matrix algebra greatly simplifies the presentation of regression and is used throughout the text. Sections 2.7 and 2.8 are not used until later in the text and canbe omitted for now.
