{{anchor|rref}}Reduced row echelon form: better to make evidence explicit
Line 37:
* Each column containing a leading {{math|1}} has zeros in all its other entries.
 
TheIf the first two conditions are verified, the last condition is equivalent to:
* Each column containing a leading {{math|1}} has zeros in all entries above the leading {{math|1}}.
 
While a matrix may have several echelon forms, its reduced echelon form is unique.
 
Given a matrix in reduced row echelon form, if one permutes the columns in order to have the leading {{math|1}} of the {{mvar|i}}th row in the {{mvar|i}}th column, one gets a matrix of the form
