Let V be an n-by-n Vandermonde matrix.
d = 1;
for k = 1:n-1
d = d*prod(V(k+1:n,2)-V(k,2));
end % <-- At exit d equals det(V)
This might give you greater accuracy for this special kind of matrix than using 'det'. See

If you want to calculate the determinant of an arbitrary matrix in a loop, you can also do it by using the Levi-Civita symbol.
