The article helps understand while revisiting your already read concepts. Spoiler alert! This is a very interesting topic. Perhaps, the most interesting fundamental thing in that is the beauty in thinking and intuiting of such great ideas. My approach while unvieling the beauty is that, let us first consider there is no such thing as matrix. Then, what we do is we will slowly (re-)discover it. I hope this will be an interesting way.
