O'Connor -- Boolean Matrix Inverses
Shows that the only invertible Boolean matrices are permutation matrices and gives an $O(n^2)$ test for such matrices.

Basic theorems on the existence of invertible Boolean matrices.

This is a master's thesis written by two of my students in 1991. It gives a fairly good description of the Network Simplex Algorithm and it implementation in Turbo Pascal.

An incomplete note on Mrs La Touche, quoted in books by Knuth, and Higham. "I do hate sums. There is no greater mistake than to call arithmetic an exact science. There are ... hidden laws of Number which it requires a mind like mine to perceive. For instance, if you add a sum from the bottom up, and then again from the top down, the result is always different". -- Mrs La Touche.

Durstenfeld's Random Permutation (1964) algorithm is shown to be the first optimal random permutation generator to be published. It is not merely a computer version of the older Fisher-Yates Shuffle algorithm (1938) , which is not optimal.
