EXAMPLE
n = 2 : det([a b];[c d]) is (ad - bc) [16 possible matrices]
0 if ((a OR d) = zero) AND ((b OR c) = zero)
OR ((a AND d) = one) AND ((b AND D) = one) [10 possible matrices]
+1 if ((a AND d) = one) AND ((b OR c) = zero) [ 3 possible matrices]
-1 if ((a OR d) = zero) AND ((b AND c) = one) [ 3 possible matrices]
