8. C PROGRAMMING LAB | Check Now → VTULOOP

C PROGRAMMING LAB –08] Develop a program to introduce 2D array manipulation and implement matrix multiplication and ensure the rules of multiplication are checked.

Algorithm

Step-1: Start
Step-2: [Read the order of both matrices M, N, P, Q]
Step-3: Check for i = 0 to M and j = 0 to N for the matrix A, read A[i][j]
Step-4: Check for i = 0 to P and j = 0 to Q for the matrix B, read B[i][j]
Step-5: If in case (N=P) then only multiplication is possible then goto step 6 otherwise goto step 7
Step-6: Initially set matrix C[i][j] as 0
- For k=0 to n
- C[i][j] = C[i][j] + A[i][k]*B[i][k] than goto step 8
Step-7: Multiplication is not possible
Step-8: Prints the multiplication of the two matrix
Step-9: Stop
