Question

Write a program to find the product of two matrices. For example, product of Matrix A of order 2x3 and Matrix B of order 3x2 can be calculated as:

Note:

The number of columns of the 1st matrix must equal the number of rows of the 2nd matrix.

And the result will have the same number of rows as the 1st matrix, and the same number of columns as the 2nd matrix.

#include <stdio.h>

void display(int matrix[][10], int, int);

    int r1, c1, r2, c2;

    int A[10][10], B[10][10], C[10][10];

/* product of matrix1 size m1xn1 and matrix2 size m2xn2 */
void product(int matrix1[][10], int matrix2[][10], int matrix3[][10], int m1, int n1, int m2, int n2)
{
