Finding solution set of system of linear equations.
..., 2.2 of Artin, Algebra).
So, 3 eqs in 4 unknowns. One can easily use row-reductions to find a
homogeneous solution(b=0) of:
X_1 = 0, X_2 = -c/2, X_3 = c, X_4 = 0
and solutions of the above system are:
X_1 = 2/3, X_2 = -1/3-c/2, X_3 = c, X_4 = 0.
So the Kernel is 1-D spanned by X_2 = -X_3 /2, (nulliity=1), rank is 3.
In R I use solve():
> solve(a,b)
Error in solve.default(a, b) :
Lapack routine dgesv: system is exactly singular
and it gives the error that the system is exactly singular, since it seems
to be trying to invert a.
So my question is:
Can R only solve non-singular linear system...
