C++ - Matrix Determinant
Determinant is applicable for only square matrix. If we have up to 2 X 2 or 3 X 3 or 4 X 4 square matrix, then it is OK to calculate it manually. But if we have 6 X 6 matrix or 12 X 12 matrix, then definitely we need calculator or computer program to solve this problem.
I have written a C++ program to solve the determinant problem that can accept any square matrix even 24 X 24 is possible.
I have used recursion and dynamic memory allocation a lot to solve this problem
