In mathematics, the standard basis (also called natural basis or canonical basis) of a coordinate vector space (such as or ) is the set of vectors whose components are all zero, except one that equals 1. For example, in the case of the Euclidean plane formed by the pairs (x, y) of real numbers, the standard basis is formed by the vectors Similarly, the standard basis for the three-dimensional space is formed by vectors Here the vector ex points in the x direction, the vector ey points in the y direction, and the vector ez points in the z direction. There are several common notations for standard-basis vectors, including {ex, ey, ez}, {e1, e2, e3}, {i, j, k}, and {x, y, z}. These vectors are sometimes written with a hat to emphasize their status as unit vectors (standard unit vectors). These vectors are a basis in the sense that any other vector can be expressed uniquely as a linear combination of these. For example, every vector v in three-dimensional space can be written uniquely as the scalars , , being the scalar components of the vector v. In the n-dimensional Euclidean space , the standard basis consists of n distinct vectors where ei denotes the vector with a 1 in the ith coordinate and 0's elsewhere. Standard bases can be defined for other vector spaces, whose definition involves coefficients, such as polynomials and matrices. In both cases, the standard basis consists of the elements of the space such that all coefficients but one are 0 and the non-zero one is 1. For polynomials, the standard basis thus consists of the monomials and is commonly called monomial basis. For matrices , the standard basis consists of the m×n-matrices with exactly one non-zero entry, which is 1. For example, the standard basis for 2×2 matrices is formed by the 4 matrices (Wikipedia).

Visualizing Change Of Basis Dynamically
How can we visualize a B-coordinate system not from the "standard" way, but from the perspective of the B-basis, itself? Further, if we apply the Change-Of-Basis transformations that we've computed previously, what does that "look" like? Answering these two questions simultaneously gives u

Coordinate Systems From Non-Standard Bases | Definitions + Visualization
We've all used the standard coordinate system where (x,y) means x to the right and y up. However, for any subspace and a basis of that subspace, we can define a coordinate system. The same vector can thus be written in multiple coordinate systems. We describe what exactly we mean by this,

Writing Vectors in Different Coordinate Systems
Description: Coordinate systems as we have conventionally thought of them are based on the standard basis vectors. But if we have some other basis, we can define a sensible notion of a coordinate system as well. Learning Objectives: 1) Write a vector in a specified basis into the standar

Visualizing Diagonalization & Eigenbases
Diagonal transformations are really nice to visualize geometrically. In 2D they are just a combination of horizontal and vertical stretching. While a generic matrix isn't quite this nice, if you can find a basis of eigenvectors, then the transformation "looks" like stretching and compres
