No sirve

Danke, sir.

hi , thank you for code but I could not do this which is for 4 or more unknown equations . could you help me ?

Haven't touched this in ages, can you provide a working example? This has handled arbitrary sized equations.

Thanks for the code. I am having trouble with singular matrices when using it with bigger matrices and have found the following article which deals with this specific problem for gaussian elimination. It seems to be an easy extension, I wonder if you could give help me with it given I am not familiar with the method: "When a row of zeros, say the ith, is encountered in the transform of A, the diagonal element of that row is changed to 1, and in the augmented portion of the matrix all other rows are changed to 0, the ith row being unchanged".

how would i write a program that does forward elimination - use the naive method for python code
