Java Matrix Determinant

This Java method calculates the determinant of a matrix. It first checks if the matrix is 1x1 and simply returns the value. Otherwise, it iterates through each column, gets the submatrix by removing that column's row and column, calculates the determinant of the submatrix recursively, and adds the signed value to the running total, switching the sign with each iteration. It returns the final determinant value.
