Bases and finite dimension
A basis spans without linear redundancy.
Key knowledge
A basis is a linearly independent spanning set. In a finite-dimensional vector space every basis has the same number of elements, its dimension.
Conditions and scope
- Fix the scalar field; changing it can change dimension.
- Only finite-dimensional spaces are considered here.
