Everything about Determinant
In mathematics, invariant of square matrices
In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar-valued function of the entries of a square matrix that has many properties which make it fundamental for the study of square matrices and linear transformations represented by them. Wikipedia →

📖 Definitions
Noun A determining factor; an element that determines the nature of something.
Noun A scalar that encodes certain characteristics of a given transformation matrix; the unique scalar function over square matrices which is distributive over matrix multiplication, multilinear in the rows and columns, and takes the value 1 for the unit matrix; abbreviated as: det.
Noun A substance that causes a cell to adopt a particular fate.
Noun Something that causes a nuclease to cut at a specified point
