Let A be a square matrix that represents the Input Matrix, and let L and U represent the lower and upper triangular matrices, respectively, of A such that

A = LU

where the main diagonal elements of the lower triangular matrix L are arbitrarily set to one. The VI finds the determinant of A by the product of the main diagonal elements of the upper triangular matrix U

where |A| is the determinant of X and n is the dimension of X.
