Expand description
An interface for calculating determinants of matrices.
Required Methods§
sourcefn sln_det_into(self) -> Result<(A, A::Real)>
fn sln_det_into(self) -> Result<(A, A::Real)>
Computes the (sign, natural_log)
of the determinant of the matrix.
For real matrices, sign
is 1
, 0
, or -1
. For complex matrices,
sign
is 0
or a complex number with absolute value 1. The
natural_log
is the natural logarithm of the absolute value of the
determinant. If the determinant is zero, sign
is 0 and natural_log
is negative infinity.
To obtain the determinant, you can compute sign * natural_log.exp()
or just call .det_into()
instead.
This method is more robust than .det()
to very small or very large
determinants since it returns the natural logarithm of the determinant
rather than the determinant itself.
