Java Program to Find the Determinant of a Matrix

08 Sep, 2021
The Determinant of a Matrix is a real number that can be defined for square matrices only i.e, the number of rows and columns of the matrices must be equal. Moreover, it is helpful in determining the system of the linear equation as well as figuring the inverse of the stated matrix.
Procedure to calculate:
First, we need to calculate the cofactor of all the elements of the matrix in the first row or first column.
Then, multiply each element of the first row or first column with their respective cofactor.
At last, we need to add them up with alternate signs.
Example:
Determinant of 2*2 matrix:
[4, 3]
[2, 3]

= (4*3)-(3*2)
= 12-6
= 6
Determinant of 3*3 matrix:
[1, 3, -2]
[-1, 2, 1]
[1, 0, -2]

= 1(-4-0)-3(2-1)+(-2)(0-2)
= -4-3+4
= -3
Note:
The determinant of 1*1 matrix is the element itself.The Cofactor of any element of the stated matrix can be calculated by eliminating the row and the column of that element from the matrix stated.
The determinant of 1*1 matrix is the element itself.
The Cofactor of any element of the stated matrix can be calculated by eliminating the row and the column of that element from the matrix stated.
Let’s see an example in order to get a clear concept of the above topic.
Example: Using Recursion
Java
// Java program to find// Determinant of a matrixclass GFG {     // Dimension of input square matrix    static final int N = 2;     // Function to get cofactor of    // mat[p][q] in temp[][]. n is    // current dimension of mat[][]    static void getCofactor(int mat[][], int temp[][],                            int p, int q, int n)    {        int i = 0, j = 0;         // Looping for each element        // of the matrix        for (int row = 0; row < n; row++) {            for (int col = 0; col < n; col++) {                // Copying into temporary matrix                // only those element which are                // not in given row and column                if (row != p && col != q) {                    temp[i][j++] = mat[row][col];                    // Row is filled, so increase                    // row index and reset col index                    if (j == n - 1) {                        j = 0;                        i++;                    }                }            }        }    }     /* Recursive function for finding determinant    of matrix. n is current dimension of mat[][]. */    static int determinantOfMatrix(int mat[][], int n)    {        int D = 0; // Initialize result         // Base case : if matrix        // contains single element        if (n == 1)            return mat[0][0];         // To store cofactors        int temp[][] = new int[N][N];         // To store sign multiplier        int sign = 1;         // Iterate for each element of first row        for (int f = 0; f < n; f++) {            // Getting Cofactor of mat[0][f]            getCofactor(mat, temp, 0, f, n);            D += sign * mat[0][f]                 * determinantOfMatrix(temp, n - 1);             // terms are to be added            // with alternate sign            sign = -sign;        }         return D;    }     /* function for displaying the matrix */    static void display(int mat[][], int row, int col)    {        for (int i = 0; i < row; i++) {            for (int j = 0; j < col; j++)                System.out.print(mat[i][j]);             System.out.print("\n");        }    }     // Driver code    public static void main(String[] args)    {         int mat[][] = { { 4, 3 }, { 2, 3 } };         System.out.print("Determinant "                         + "of the matrix is : "                         + determinantOfMatrix(mat, N));    }}
