Etymology[edit]

From Old Japanese, in turn from Middle Chinese 行列 (MC haeng ljet). First attested in Japanese in 749.[1]

The date of the mathematical sense is uncertain. Matrices for calculation were long known in Chinese mathematics, and were used to solve systems of linear equations in the work 九章算術九章算术 (The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art), compiled from the 10th through the 2nd centuries BCE. The component terms and (liè) are both used in that text, but not in the particular combination of 行列 (hángliè) (see also Wikisource). The first Japanese work on this aspect of mathematics was a 1683 text by 関孝和 (Seki Takakazu), but it is not yet clear if this text includes the term 行列 (gyōretsu) with the sense of matrix.
