The MDETERM function in Google Sheets is a mathematical function that calculates the determinant of a square matrix.

To use the MDETERM function in Google Sheets, you need to provide a range of cells that contain the square matrix you want to calculate the determinant of. The function will then compute the determinant of the matrix and return the result as a single value.

It's worth noting that the MDETERM function can only be used with square matrices. If you try to use it with a non-square matrix, or with a range of cells that does not contain a matrix, you'll get an error message.
