Matrix using nested for loops in C++
By: Ignatius
This simple C++ program illustrates the use of three nested for loops. The program multiplies matrix x and y and stores the resulting matrix product xy in matrix z. Both x and y must be compatible for multiplication that means, the number of columns of x must be equal to the number of rows of y.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#define m 3
#define c 2
#define n 4
int main()
{
int i, j, k;
// first matrix...
int x[m][c] = {{1,2},{3,4},{5,6}};
// second matrix...
int y[c][n] = {{7,8,9,10},{11,12,13,14}};
// for storing the matrix product result...
int z[m][n];
for(i=0; i<m; i++)
for(j=0; j<n; j++)
{
z[i][j] = 0;
for(k=0; k<c; k++)
// same as z[i][j] = z[i][j] + x[i][k] * y[k][j];
z[i][j] += x[i][k] * y[k][j];
}
cout<<"\nMultiply matrix x and matrix y,";
cout<<"\nThen store the result in matrix z.";
cout<<"\nMatrix x is 3x2, and matrix y is 2x4,";
cout<<"\nso, the result, z should be matrix 3x4\n";
cout<<"\nThe matrix product is: \n";
for (i=0; i<m; i++)
{
cout<<"\n";
for(j=0; j<n; j++)
// display the result...
cout<<" "<<z[i][j];
}
cout<<endl;
return 0;
}
