Copyright © 2014, 2010, 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. 2 Notations for Matrices An array of numbers, arranged in rows and columns and placed in brackets, is called a matrix. We can represent a matrix in two different ways: A capital letter, such as A, B, or C, can denote a matrix. A lowercase letter enclosed in brackets, such as [a ij ] can denote a matrix. A general element in matrix A is denoted by a ij. This refers to the element in the ith row and jth column.
