- Determinant[Matrix]
- Gives the determinant of the given matrix.
- Example:
Determinant[{{1, 2}, {3, 4}}]gives the number a = -2.
CAS Syntax
- Determinant[Matrix]
- Gives the determinant of the given matrix. If matrix contains undefined variables, it yields a formula for determinant.
- Example:
Determinant[{{1, a}, {b, 4}}]gives -a b + 4.
