Álgebra lineal y juegos de mesa

<p>In this paper we present three examples that can be used to motivate and introduce classical notions of a course of Linear Algebra (and its connection with other subjects such as Probability and Computing) in an Engineering degree. More specifically in this article we shown how the use of L...
