27 / 29 Blog from Java Programs

This article will introduce you to a very common problem that if dealt with, eases many tasks. This article will discuss Matrix Multiplication In Java. Following pointers will be discussed in this article,

So let us get started with this article,

Matrix Multiplication In Java

Obtaining a single matrix from the entries of two matrices by using a binary operation is known as Matrix multiplication. In simpler terms, if two matrices R and S of order a*b and b*c are multiplied, the matrix obtained is of the order a*c. Multiplication of a matrix can be done efficiently in java by using various methods. The most effective method is discussed below.

Using For Loop

In this method, we make usage of for loop.

public class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
//creating two matrices
int m1[][]={{1,2,3},{4,5,6},{2,3,4}};
int m2[][]={{1,2,3},{4,5,6},{2,3,4}};
int m[][]=new int[3][3]; //3 rows and 3 columns
//multiplying
for(int i=0;i<3;i++){
for(int j=0;j<3;j++){
m[i][j]=0;
for(int k=0;k<3;k++)
{
m[i][j]+=m1[i][k]*m2[k][j];
}
//end of k loop
System.out.print(m[i][j]+" "); //printing matrix
}
//end of j loop
System.out.println();
}
}}

Output

Moving on with this article on Matrix Multiplication In Java,

Specify Input Through Keyboard

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int n;
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter base of matrices");
n = input.nextInt();
int[][] m1 = new int[n][n];
int[][] m2 = new int[n][n];
int[][] mat = new int[n][n];
System.out.println("Enter the elements of 1st matrix row wise : n");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < n; j++)
{
m1[i][j] = input.nextInt();
}
}
System.out.println("Enter the elements of 2nd matrix row wise : n");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < n; j++)
{
m2[i][j] = input.nextInt();
}
}
System.out.println("Multiplying the matrices : ");
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < n; j++)
{
for(int k = 0; k < n; k++)
{
mat[i][j] = mat[i][j] + m1[i][k] * m2[k][j];
}
}
}
System.out.println("Product :");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < n; j++)
{
System.out.print(mat[i][j] + " ");
}
System.out.println();
}
input.close();
}
}

Output

Enter base of matrices:

3

Enter the elements of 1st matrix row wise:

1

2

3

6

5

4

7

8

9

Enter the elements of 2nd matrix row wise :

3

2

1

4

Multiplying the matrices:

Product:

38 36 34

270 314 358

134 126 118

Thus, the product of two matrices can be found efficiently by using the for loop in java.
