determinant()

def draftgeoutils.linear_algebra.determinant	(		mat,
			n
	)

Return the determinant of an N-matrix.

It recursively expands the minors.

linearFromPoints()

def draftgeoutils.linear_algebra.linearFromPoints	(		p1,
			p2
	)

Calculate linear equation from points.

Calculate the slope and offset parameters of the linear equation
of a line defined by two points.

Linear equation:
y = m * x + b
m = dy / dx
m ... Slope
b ... Offset (point where the line intersects the y axis)
dx/dy ... Delta x and y. Using both as a vector results
in a non-offset direction vector.
