C program for matrix multiplication

This program implements matrix multiplication in the C programming language.

Basic mathematics:

• A * B is different from B * A.
• To multiply two matrices, the matrices must be multiplicable, i.e. Number of columns of the first matrix must be equal to the number of rows of the second matrix.
• The order of the multiplied matrix is row1 * column2, where row1 is the number of rows in the first matrix and column2 is the number of columns in the second matrix

Program: Multiply matrix in C

Sample output #1: Print product of two matrices in C

Enter the number of rows and columns of first matrix: 3 3 
Enter the elements of first matrix: 2 1 5 2 0 3 1 6 8
Enter the number of rows and columns of second matrix: 3 2
Enter the elements of second matrix: 1 4 2 0 1 3
Product of entered matrices:
9       23
5       17
21      28

Sample output #2: Matrix not multiplicable

Enter the number of rows and columns of first matrix: 3 3 
Enter the elements of first matrix: 2 1 5 2 0 3 1 6 8
Enter the number of rows and columns of second matrix: 2 3
Matrices with entered orders can't be multiplied with each other.
