DETERMINANT |
THE BOX'S MAIN HELP: This function returns the determinant of matrix M. | M1x M2x M3x 0 | = M1x * ((M2y*M3z) - (M3y*M2z)) - | M1y M2y M3y 0 | M2x * ((M1y*M3z) - (M3y*M1z)) + | M1z M2z M3z 0 | M3x * ((M1y*M2z) - (M2y*M1z)). | 0 0 0 1 | M (input): This must be a matrix. The default is the identity matrix, for which the determinant is 1.0. OUT (output): This function returns the determinant of matrix M. | M1x M2x M3x 0 | = M1x * ((M2y*M3z) - (M3y*M2z)) - | M1y M2y M3y 0 | M2x * ((M1y*M3z) - (M3y*M1z)) + | M1z M2z M3z 0 | M3x * ((M1y*M2z) - (M2y*M1z)). | 0 0 0 1 | |
