Hey guys, I am incredibly new to c++ and need a little help on a matrix multiplyer program...

#include <iomanip> 
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{

int **mat1;
int **mat2;
int **result;
int row,col;

cout<<"Please enter row/col"<<endl;
cin>>row>>col;

mat1 = new int *[row];
mat2 = new int *[row];
result = new int *[row];
int k,i,j;

for (k=0; i<row; k++)
    mat1[k] = new int[col];
    mat2[k] = new int[col];
    result[k] = new int[col];
    
              for (i=0; i<row; i++)
                  for (j=0; j<col; j++)
                      for (j=0; j<row; j++)
                          for(i=0; i<col; i++)
                          result[i][k] += (mat1 [i][k] * mat2[k][j]);

cout<<setw(4)<<result[i][k];

I know obviously that I need 3 arrays, 1 and 2 to multiply and 3 to store the result. I'm just really bad at reading nested loops... and c++ in general. any help would be appreciated.

Where do you input values into the arrays, prior to running the multiply code?

It might run as written, but it will surely produce a bunch of garbage output.

hey thx for the reply. I input values into the the arrays at the beginning where the user inputs. im guessing your saying that my arrays have no value as of right now because i'm not giving it anything... im confused..

I know obviously that I need 3 arrays, 1 and 2 to multiply and 3 to store the result. I'm just really bad at reading nested loops... and c++ in general. any help would be appreciated.

The problem is that you did not close the bracket so you are getting the errors. Also when I test the program I could only use the integers 1 and 0, is that how it should be? Try it and if still have problems, then reply back.

you need to close the code with the bracket and when I ran the program, I was only able to use the integers 1 and 0. Is that how the program should be? try the program and if any problems reply back.

Try it and if still have problems, then reply back.

It's been over 2.5 years. (S)He has probably solved the problem by now.

Where do you input values into the arrays, prior to running the multiply code?

It might run as written, but it will surely produce a bunch of garbage output.

plz send a program in C++ by using array matix multipication
