Recipe Objective

Do you find calculating determinant of a matrix is easy? Have to tried to find it using python.

So this is the recipe on how we can Calculate Determinant of a Matrix or ndArray.

Step 1 - Importing Library

We have only imported numpy which is needed.

Step 2 - Creating Matrix

We have created two matrix of which we will find determinant. matrixA = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 23], [4, 5, 6, 25], [7, 8, 9, 28], [10, 11, 12, 41]]) matrixB = np.array([[2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 9], [7, 8, 1]])

Step 3 - Finding determinant

We will finding determinant by using the function np.linalg.det to find the determinant of both the matrix print(np.linalg.det(matrixA)) print(np.linalg.det(matrixB)) So the output comes as
