Alright, setting up the corrections here. Good to know they're open to feedback, that makes the content more robust.
Oh, introducing vectors as the core of linear algebra is a great starting point. And I like that they're immediately highlighting the different perspectives – physics, computer science, math. It makes sense to cover those bases upfront.
So, physicists see them as arrows, defined by length and direction, which is super intuitive. And then moving into the computer science view as ordered lists of numbers makes sense, especially with the house price example – order definitely matters there.

The foundational concept of linear algebra is the vector, understood through three perspectives: the physicist's view of arrows defined by length and direction [0:29], the computer scientist's view of ordered lists of numbers where order is crucial [0:59], and the mathematician's more abstract, generalized definition that underlies vector operations [1:28]. For the purpose of this series, vectors are primarily visualized as arrows rooted at the origin [2:28], with their position and direction determined by coordinates. In two dimensions, these coordinates are an ordered pair representing movements along the x and y axes [2:57], while in three dimensions, a third z-axis is introduced, requiring an ordered triplet of numbers [3:56].
