Symbolic determinant, C output

Hi

I would like to create a C-formatted, symbolic expression for the
determinant of a matrix with a given dimension. For example, if the
matrix is 2x2 and is called M, I need:

M[0][0]*M[1][1] - M[0][1]*M[1][0]

ccode(det(M)) will do that if M is already defined as a symbolic
matrix. But how do I define a symbolic NxN matrix, without defining
its elements?

Thanks a lot

Farzad
