Implementing basic matrix operations
There are several different types of matrix operations, including simple addition, subtraction, scalar multiplication, and various forms of multiplication. To illustrate the matrix operations, we will focus on what is known as matrix product. This is a common approach that involves the multiplication of two matrixes to produce a third matrix.
Consider two matrices, A and B, where matrix A has n rows and m columns. Matrix B will have m rows and p columns. The product of A and B, written as AB, is an n row and p column matrix. The m entries of the rows of A are multiplied by the m entries of the columns of matrix B. This is more explicitly shown here, where:
Where the product is defined as follows:
We start with the declaration and initialization of the matrices. The variables n
, m
, p
represent the dimensions of the matrices. The A
matrix is n
by m
, the B
matrix is m
by p
, and the C
matrix representing the product is n
by p
:
int n = 4; int m = 2; int p =...
