Solving linear equations using SciPy's linalg.solve function
by kanika Updated: Apr 6, 2023
Solution Kit
Linear equations involve two or more variables, where each variable is raised to the first power, and there are no products or powers of variables. Scipy's linalg.solve function can be used to solve linear equations by providing a coefficient matrix and an array of the right-hand sides of the equations.
Scipy linalg.solve is a function in the SciPy library for Python programming that can be used to solve systems of linear equations. It takes a matrix of coefficients as its argument and returns the solution vector of the system of equations.
Here is an example of solving linear equations using SciPy's linalg.solve function
