Tensor algebra is a mathematical framework that extends the concepts of linear algebra to accommodate tensors, which are multi-dimensional arrays that generalize scalars, vectors, and matrices. In simpler terms, tensors can represent data in more complex ways compared to traditional linear algebra structures. ### Key Concepts in Tensor Algebra: 1. **Tensors**: - A scalar is a 0th-order tensor. - A vector is a 1st-order tensor.
