The process of finding the basis is essentially about spotting a group of vectors that not only span a vector space but are also linearly independent. In doing so, it establishes a coordinate system for the vector space, which subsequently enables us to represent any vector in that space as a unique blend of the basis vectors. It's worth noting that the bases can vary from one space to another.
