Question

Read a square matrix of order m and print the matrix product A × Aᵀ.

Step 1: Start and create Scanner. Step 2: Read the order m of the square matrix. Step 3: Reject an order outside the permitted practical range. Step 4: Declare the original matrix A. Step 5: Declare a result matrix with the same order. Step 6: Read each element using nested row and column loops. Step 7: Begin the outer loop for each result row. Step 8: Begin a second loop for each result column. Step 9: Initialize each result element to zero through the default array values. Step 10: Run a third loop over the multiplication index k. Step 11: Multiply A at row i, column k by A at row j, column k. Step 12: Add each multiplication result to the current result element. Step 13: Repeat until every result element has been calculated. Step 14: Print the product matrix row by row. Step 15: Stop execution.

            for (int j = 0; j < m; j++) {
                for (int k = 0; k < m; k++) {
                    product[i][j] += a[i][k] * a[j][k];
                }
            }

            for (int j = 0; j < m; j++) {
                System.out.print(product[i][j] + " ");
            }
            System.out.println();
        }
    }
