Determinant of MATLAB Matrices

The determinant of a matrix is calculated using MATLAB's det function. The determinant of matrix A is given by det(A).

Online Example

Create a script file using the following code-

a = [ 1 2 3; 2 3 4; 1 2 5]
det(a)

When running the file, it displays the following result-

a =
      1     2     3
      2     3     4
      1     2     5
