I have an NxM matrix and I'm wondering if it's possible to invert it. I know matrix inversion is a common operation in linear algebra, but I'm not sure if it applies to matrices of this specific dimension.

Non-square matrices are matrices that do not have an equal number of rows and columns.

Specifically, if a matrix is m-by-n and m is not equal to n, it is considered a non-square matrix.

One important property of non-square matrices is that they do not have an inverse.

An inverse matrix is a matrix that, when multiplied by the original matrix, results in the identity matrix.

Despite not having an inverse, in certain cases, a non-square matrix may possess either a left inverse or a right inverse.
