![F[x]-Module Derivation of Rational and Jordan Canonical Forms
Similar matrices isomorphism proof: https://youtu.be/-ligAAxFM8Y
Every module is a direct sum of cyclic modules: https://youtu.be/gWIRI43h0ic

The rational canonical form and Jordan normal form of a matrix are very important tools in linear algebra, but ring theory and module theory give us a very effective way to prove their existence! Here we show that every matrix is similar to a matrix in rational and Jordan canonical form.
