CloudLabs Bridge with Straws vs The Matrix Mentor

In this laboratory practice, you are tasked with building a bridge of a given length; you must keep in mind that each span used must have the same length. To perform this activity, you will have all the necessary tools such as the plans and the parts required for the construction. Remember to perform and verify the calculations for the bridge in order to complete the test successfully.

Are matrices getting you down? Don’t worry… THE MATRIX MENTOR IS HERE TO HELP The Matrix Mentor provides a visual understanding of linear transformations. Where others may teach you the mathematical rules that can be hard to remember, our playground provides a visual and interactive demonstration of the inner workings. SCARED OF MATRICES? DON'T BE! At its core, The Matrix Mentor is a visual learning tool, designed to bring matrices from an abstract mathematical concept to a concrete application. Whether you think about vectors as 3D points or a RGB color value, the fundamentals hold true. - Experiment with different types of transformations - Discover how matrices interact with a given vector, or a whole grid of points - Develop your intuitive sense for reading matrices and linear transformations Do yourself a favour, and start playing with The Matrix Mentor today!
