DET(array)

• $array$ is the set of numbers.

Description

• This function gives the determinant value of a matrix.
• To calculate the determinant of a matrix, we can choose only square matrix.i.e. Number of rows and number of columns should be equal.
• Determinant of the identity matrix is always 1.
• Determinant of the matrix $A$ is denoted by $det(A)$ or $|A|$.
• Let $A$ be 2x2 matrix with the elements

• This function will give the result as error when

1. Any one of the element in array is empty or contain non-numeric
2. Number of rows is not equal to number of columns

Examples

1. =DET([[6,4,8],[3,6,1],[2,4,5]]) = 104
2. =DET([[-5,10],[6,-8]]) = -20
3. =DET([[1,0,2,1],[4,0,2,-1],[1,4,5,2],[3,1,2,0]]) = 17
4. =DET([1,2,3],[5,2,8]) = NAN
