of linear algebra or matrix theory. The introduction and development of the notation of matrix and system of linear algebra followed the development of determinant‚ which rose from the study of coefficient system of linear equations. Leibnitz‚ one of the founders of calculus used determinant in 1693 an Cramer presented his determinant - based formula system of solving linear equations (known as Cramer’s’ rule) in 1750. In 1848‚ James J Sylvester introduced the term “matrix” which was Latin word
