  PlanetMath: matrix inverse
Some caveats: computing the matrix inverse for ill-conditioned matrices is error-prone; special care must be taken and there are sometimes special algorithms to calculate the inverse of certain classes of matrices (for example, Hilbert matrices).
The need to find the matrix inverse depends on the situation- whether done by hand or by computer, and whether the matrix is simply a part of some equation or expression or not.
However, the matrix inverse may exist in the case of the elements being members of a commutative ring, provided that the determinant of the matrix is a unit in the ring.
