Unfortunately I can't. The original Kernighan & Ritcie book on 'C'
language is actually very good, but I picked up the conversion to
C++ from various places whose names I can't remember.

"algorithm" is simply an exact description of how to carry out a
calculation step-by-step; in effect the "method" part of a computer
program without the variable descriptions at the top.
"recursive" means a calculation is described in terms of [1] a simpler
version of the same calculation and [2] knowing when it's so simple
you have the answer trivially. For example:
int factorial(int n){
if(n<=1)return 1; else return factorial(n-1)*n;
};
You should regard the CODE(method) of factorial as like the recipe,
and the data of any separate execution as like the mixing bowl. The
same recipe can be used by different people at once, but each need
their own mixing bowl or things get confused :->. If you ask
factorial(3) it will get so far and ask for...
factorial(2) will get so fat and ask for...
factorial(1) which is one
times two is two
time three is six. Done

Try something like this....... except that crap versions of C++ will
insist on you taking the function def OUTSIDE the class when it contains
for loops.
class TSquareMatrix { public:
int NElements; //number of rows and columns
double a[20][20]; //the square matrix
//
//consruct: set number of elements and fill them all in.
//
SquareMatrix(int N0=4, double X0=0.0){ NElements=N0;
for(int i=0; i<N0; ++i) for(int j=0; j<N0; ++j) a[i][j]=X0;
};
//
//make the "minor" of a determinant
//
static makeMinor(TSquareMatrix &Out, TSquareMatrix &Inp, int Gap){
int n=Inp.NElements; Out.Nelements=n-1;
for(int i=0; i<n; ++i){
for(int j=0,j1=0; j<n; ++j){
if(j!=Gap){ Out[i][j1++] = Inp[i-1][j]; };
}; //EndFor_j
}; // EndFor_i
};
}
well, if you have a SquareMatrix for a determinant and another
blank SqaureMatrix, you know how to make the mninor in it now.
