In what ways are matrices used in the real world?
In: Mathematics
Matrices are a form of representing data in a mathematical format
Without going into detail, matrices are used in many things in our everyday life, such as predicting/forecasting the weather, or calculating the statistics of diseases (such as the current pandemic) or even in finding best paths to go from point A to point B on a map
We just don’t get to see them because we have made software that does all the calculations on matrices behind the scenes to give us lines and shapes with pretty colours that we like/prefer to see
