First of all, you must include the standard input-output header file, which is the basis for C programming. Then you have to declare and define the main() function. Within the scope of main() function, you have to first declare some integer variables - c, d, p, q, m, n, k, tot = 0 followed by some 2D integer arrays (which will act like matrices in your program) - fst[10][10], sec[10][10], mul[10][10]. Then use a print statement to instruct your user for providing or giving input for a number of rows and columns of the first matrix.
Inserting all the elements one by one in your array needs for loop, followed by a scanf().
for (c = 0; c < m; c++)
for (d = 0; d < n; d++)
scanf("%d", &fst[c][d] );
This is a nested for loop which will take values for "m" number of rows and "n" number of columns, i.e., it will iterate "m" and "n" number of times to feed values in the fst[][] array. Again, use another print statement to instruct your user for providing or giving input for a number of rows and columns of the second matrix.
for (c = 0; c < p; c++)
for (d = 0; d < q; d++)
scanf("%d", &sec[c][d] );
Same nested loops are used again to feed values to your second array sec[][]. Now the condition is checked whether the number of columns in the first matrix is equal to the number of rows in the second matrix. If this condition satisfies, you have to write the logic for multiplication. This will need nested of nested for loop.
for (c = 0; c < m; c++) {
for (d = 0; d < q; d++) {
for (k = 0; k < p; k++) {
tot = tot + fst[c][k] * sec[k][d];
}
mul[c][d] = tot;
tot = 0;
}
}
Here the three loops have been used which stores the multiplicative value of fst[][] and sec[][] in the variable tot and this adding of multiplicative values will continue till it traverses all the values of the array. At the same time store every calculated value of tot in the array mul[][] which will store the resultant multiplication. Now you have to print the resultant 2D array using nested for loop.
printf(" The result of matrix multiplication or product of the matrices is: \n ");
for (c = 0; c < g; c++) {
for (d = 0; d < bb; d++)
printf( " %d \t", mul[c][d]);
