Matrix multiplication
Multiply two matrices together. They can be of any dimensions, so long as the number of columns of the first matrix is equal to the number of rows of the second matrix.

Ada
Ada has matrix multiplication predefined for any floating-point or complex type. The implementation is provided by the standard library packages Ada.Numerics.Generic_Real_Arrays and Ada.Numerics.Generic_Complex_Arrays correspondingly. The following example illustrates use of real matrix multiplication for the type Float: <ada> with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; with Ada.Numerics.Real_Arrays; use Ada.Numerics.Real_Arrays;
procedure Matrix_Product is
procedure Put (X : Real_Matrix) is type Fixed is delta 0.01 range -100.0..100.0; begin for I in X'Range (1) loop for J in X'Range (2) loop Put (Fixed'Image (Fixed (X (I, J)))); end loop; New_Line; end loop; end Put; A : constant Real_Matrix := ( ( 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0), ( 2.0, 4.0, 8.0, 16.0), ( 3.0, 9.0, 27.0, 81.0), ( 4.0, 16.0, 64.0, 256.0) ); B : constant Real_Matrix := ( ( 4.0, -3.0, 4.0/3.0, -1.0/4.0 ), (-13.0/3.0, 19.0/4.0, -7.0/3.0, 11.0/24.0), ( 3.0/2.0, -2.0, 7.0/6.0, -1.0/4.0 ), ( -1.0/6.0, 1.0/4.0, -1.0/6.0, 1.0/24.0) );
begin
Put (A * B);
end Matrix_Product; </ada> Sample output:
1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00
The following code illustrates how matrix multiplication could be implemented from scratch: <ada>
package Matrix_Ops is type Matrix is array (Natural range <>, Natural range <>) of Float; function "*" (Left, Right : Matrix) return Matrix; end Matrix_Ops;
package body Matrix_Ops is --------- -- "*" -- --------- function "*" (Left, Right : Matrix) return Matrix is Temp : Matrix(Left'Range(1), Right'Range(2)) := (others =>(others => 0.0)); begin if Left'Length(2) /= Right'Length(1) then raise Constraint_Error; end if; for I in Left'range(1) loop for J in Right'range(2) loop for K in Left'range(2) loop Temp(I,J) := Temp(I,J) + Left(I, K)*Right(K, J); end loop; end loop; end loop; return Temp; end "*"; end Matrix_Ops;

ALGOL 68
An example of user defined Vector and Matrix Multiplication Operators:
MODE FIELD = LONG REAL; # field type is LONG REAL # INT default upb:=3; MODE VECTOR = [default upb]FIELD; MODE MATRIX = [default upb,default upb]FIELD; # crude exception handling # PROC VOID raise index error := VOID: GOTO exception index error; # define the vector/matrix operators # OP * = (VECTOR a,b)FIELD: ( # basically the dot product # FIELD result:=0; IF LWB a/=LWB b OR UPB a/=UPB b THEN raise index error FI; FOR i FROM LWB a TO UPB a DO result+:= a[i]*b[i] OD; result ); OP * = (VECTOR a, MATRIX b)VECTOR: ( # overload vector times matrix # [2 LWB b:2 UPB b]FIELD result; IF LWB a/=LWB b OR UPB a/=UPB b THEN raise index error FI; FOR j FROM 2 LWB b TO 2 UPB b DO result[j]:=a*b[,j] OD; result );
# this is the task portion # OP * = (MATRIX a, b)MATRIX: ( # overload matrix times matrix # [LWB a:UPB a, 2 LWB b:2 UPB b]FIELD result; IF 2 LWB a/=LWB b OR 2 UPB a/=UPB b THEN raise index error FI; FOR k FROM LWB result TO UPB result DO result[k,]:=a[k,]*b OD; result );
# Some sample matrices to test # MATRIX a=((1, 1, 1, 1), # matrix A # (2, 4, 8, 16), (3, 9, 27, 81), (4, 16, 64, 256)); MATRIX b=(( 4 , -3 , 4/3, -1/4 ), # matrix B # (-13/3, 19/4, -7/3, 11/24), ( 3/2, -2 , 7/6, -1/4 ), ( -1/6, 1/4, -1/6, 1/24)); MATRIX prod = a * b; # actual multiplication example of A x B # FORMAT real fmt = $g(-6,2)$; # width of 6, with no '+' sign, 2 decimals # PROC real matrix printf= (FORMAT real fmt, MATRIX m)VOID:( FORMAT vector fmt = $"("n(2 UPB m-1)(f(real fmt)",")f(real fmt)")"$; FORMAT matrix fmt = $x"("n(UPB m-1)(f(vector fmt)","lxx)f(vector fmt)");"$; # finally print the result # printf((matrix fmt,m)) ); # finally print the result # print(("Product of a and b: ",new line)); real matrix printf(real fmt, prod) EXIT exception index error: putf(stand error, $x"Exception: index error."l$)
Output:
Product of a and b: (( 1.00, -0.00, -0.00, -0.00), ( -0.00, 1.00, -0.00, -0.00), ( -0.00, -0.00, 1.00, -0.00), ( -0.00, -0.00, -0.00, 1.00));

Fortran
In ISO Fortran 90 or later, use the SIZE and MATMUL intrinsic functions:
real, dimension(n,m) :: a = reshape( (/ (i, i=1, n*m) /), (/ n, m /) ) real, dimension(m,k) :: b = reshape( (/ (i, i=1, m*k) /), (/ m, k /) ) real, dimension(size(a,1), size(b,2)) :: c ! C is an array whose first dimension (row) size ! is the same as A's first dimension size, and ! whose second dimension (column) size is the same ! as B's second dimension size. c = matmul( a, b ) print *, 'A' do i = 1, n print *, a(i,:) end do print *, print *, 'B' do i = 1, m print *, b(i,:) end do print *, print *, 'C = AB' do i = 1, n print *, c(i,:) end do
Haskell
A somewhat inefficient version with lists (transpose is expensive):
import Data.List mmult :: Num a => [[a]] -> [[a]] -> [[a]] mmult a b = [ [ sum $ zipWith (*) ar bc | bc <- (transpose b) ] | ar <- a ] -- Example use: test = [[1, 2], [3, 4]] `mmult` [[-3, -8, 3], [-2, 1, 4]]
A more efficient version, based on arrays:
import Data.Array mmult :: (Ix i, Num a) => Array (i,i) a -> Array (i,i) a -> Array (i,i) a mmult x y | x1 /= y0 || x1' /= y0' = error "range mismatch" | otherwise = array ((x0,y1),(x0',y1')) l where ((x0,x1),(x0',x1')) = bounds x ((y0,y1),(y0',y1')) = bounds y ir = range (x0,x0') jr = range (y1,y1') kr = range (x1,x1') l = [((i,j), sum [x!(i,k) * y!(k,j) | k <- kr]) | i <- ir, j <- jr]
IDL
result = arr1 # arr2
J
Matrix multiply in J is just +/ .*. For example:
x =: +/ .* A =: ^/~>:i. 4 NB. Same A as in other examples (1 1 1 1, 2 4 8 16, 3 9 27 81,:4 16 64 256) B =: %.A NB. Matrix inverse of A '6.2' 8!:2 A x B 1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 1.00
The notation is for a generalized inner product so that
x ~:/ .*. y NB. boolean inner product (~: is "not equal" (exclusive or) and *. is "and") x *./ .= y NB. which rows of x are the same as vector y? x + / .= y NB. number of places where each row of x equals vector y
etc.
The general inner product extends to multidimensional arrays, requiring only that x and y be conformable (trailing dimension of array x equals the leading dimension of array y). For example, the matrix multiplication of two dimensional arrays requires x to have the same numbers of rows as y has columns, as you would expect.
Java
public static double[][] mult(double a[][], double b[][]){//a[m][n], b[n][p] if(a.length == 0) return new double[0][0]; if(a[0].length != b.length) return null; //invalid dims int n = a[0].length; int m = a.length; int p = b[0].length; double ans[][] = new double[m][p]; for(int i = 0;i < m;i++){ for(int j = 0;j < p;j++){ for(int k = 0;k < n;k++){ ans[i][j] += a[i][k] * b[k][j]; } } } return ans; }
Mathematica
M1 = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}, {5, 6}, {7, 8}} M2 = {{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}} M = M1.M2
Or without the variables:
{{1, 2}, {3, 4}, {5, 6}, {7, 8}}.{{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}}
The result is:
{{9, 12, 15}, {19, 26, 33}, {29, 40, 51}, {39, 54, 69}}

Perl
For most applications involving extensive matrix arithmetic, using the CPAN module called "PDL" (that stands for "Perl Data Language") would probably be the easiest and most efficient approach. That said, here's an implementation of matrix multiplication in plain Perl.
<perl>sub mmult
{our @a; local *a = shift; our @b; local *b = shift; my @p = []; my $rows = @a; my $cols = @{$b[0]}; my $n = @b - 1; for (my $r = 0 ; $r < $rows ; ++$r) {for (my $c = 0 ; $c < $cols ; ++$c) {$p[$r][$c] += $a[$r][$_] * $b[$_][$c] foreach 0 .. $n;}} return [@p];}</perl>
This function takes two references to arrays of arrays and returns the product as a reference to a new anonymous array of arrays.
