The user inputs the augmented matrix of a linear system, then has several options for row reducing the matrix to find a solution to the system: the reduction can be done one row operation at a time, by pivoting on a chosen element, or by row reducing in one step. Once one masters the data entry, this is a nice way for students to practice the Gaussian elimination algorithm without doing the arithmetic.
