How can I effectively perform matrix operations in C programming language?

[Henry R]

Good day everyone. I'm learning C language at the moment. Plus, matrix is bit harder. It just I couldn't understand how to write it in C programming language. Plus, it's maths calculations.
I have to use C language for this, not C++.Here's the question :
A matrix is an array of numbers which can be used in calculations. You are required to create a two 2 x 2 matrices, and perform a matrix addition and a matrix multiplication.

a) The sum of A and B, denoted by A+B, is the m x n matrix, which is obtained by adding elements in the corresponding positions.

b) The product of A and B denoted by AB, is m × n matrix with (i,j)th entry equal to the sum of the products of the corresponding elements from the ith row of A and the jth column of B. In other words, if AB = [cij], then

The following should create a 2x2 array

int a[2][2] = {{1,2},{3,4}};
//where a[0][0] = 1 , a[0][1] = 1 , a[1][0] = 1 , a[1][1] = 1

to get or a set an element you can use $a[j]$ where $i$ represents the row and $j$ represents the column.

How about the code? I mean, can you show me the complete code?;) Sorry, if this sound annoying. But, I try my best on programming.

Can you post your attempt ? then if there are mistakes we can correct them.

cij = a1i*b1j + a2i*b2j + ... + am*i*bm*jI would like to stress the importance of understanding the fundamentals and syntax of a programming language, in this case, C. While it may seem challenging to learn at first, mastering the language will greatly benefit you in your scientific endeavors. In regards to matrix operations, C has powerful capabilities for performing mathematical calculations and manipulating data. It is important to carefully follow the syntax and logic of the language to successfully write code for matrix addition and multiplication. With practice and a solid understanding of C, you will be able to efficiently perform these operations and utilize matrices for various scientific purposes. Keep learning and exploring the capabilities of C, and don't hesitate to seek help or resources if needed. Happy coding!
