2D Arrays Handout

The document explains two-dimensional arrays, which are arrays containing arrays used to store data in a table format. It includes syntax, special cases, and practice examples for inputting, displaying, summing elements, and finding the transpose of 2D arrays. Additionally, it lists lab tasks for further practice with 2D arrays, such as finding diagonal elements and performing matrix multiplication.

2D Arrays

Theory:
A two-dimensional array is an array where each element is itself an array. It is used to store data in a
table form with rows and columns.

Syntax:
datatype arrayName[rows][columns];

Special Cases:
- You must specify at least the number of columns when initializing.
- Accessing out-of-bound indices can cause unexpected results.
- 2D arrays are commonly used for matrices, tables, or grids.

Practice Examples:
Practice Example 1: Input and Display a 2D Array
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int matrix[2][2];
cout << "Enter 4 numbers:" << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
cin >> matrix[i][j];
}
}
cout << "Matrix is:" << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
cout << matrix[i][j] << " ";
}
cout << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Practice Example 2: Find Sum of All Elements in a 2D
Array
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int matrix[2][2], sum = 0;
cout << "Enter 4 numbers:" << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
cin >> matrix[i][j];
sum += matrix[i][j];
}
}
cout << "Sum of all elements: " << sum;
return 0;
}

Practice Example 3: Find the Transpose of a 2D Array


#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int matrix[2][2], transpose[2][2];
cout << "Enter 4 numbers:" << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
cin >> matrix[i][j];
}
}
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
transpose[j][i] = matrix[i][j];
}
}
cout << "Transpose matrix is:" << endl;
for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
cout << transpose[i][j] << " ";
}
cout << endl;
}
return 0;
}

Lab Tasks:
1. Task 1: Write a program that inputs a 3x3 matrix and prints the elements present on the main
diagonal.
2. Task 2: Write a program that inputs a 3x2 matrix and calculates the sum of each column
separately.
3. Task 3: Write a program that inputs a 2x3 matrix and finds the minimum element in each row.
4. Task 4: Write a program that inputs two 3x3 matrices and multiplies them to form a third matrix.
