Java Program to Add Two M*N Matrix From User Input
In this tutorial, we will learn how to add two M*N matrices from user input. But before moving forward, if you are not familiar with the concepts of the array, then do check the article Arrays in Java.
Below is the pictorial representation for the same.
Input:
Enter the number of rows in the first matrix: 3
Enter the number of columns in the first matrix: 3
Enter the number of rows in the second matrix: 3
Enter the number of rows in the second matrix: 3
Enter all the elements of the first matrix: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Enter all the elements of the second matrix: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Output:
First Matrix:
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
Second Matrix:
9 8 7
6 5 4
3 2 1
Resultant Matrix:
10 10 10
10 10 10
10 10 10
Program 1: Add an M*N Matrix from User Input
In this program, we will perform matrix addition. The addition of matrix is only possible when the given matrices are of the same size i.e, the number of rows and columns of both the matrices should be the same.
Algorithm
- Start
- Declare variables for matrix size
- Initialize the number of rows and columns for the first matrix.
- Initialize the number of rows and columns for the second matrix.
- Check whether the size of both the matrices is equal or not.
- If equal, ask the user to initialize the two matrices.
- After initializing, print the two matrices.
- Create a new Matrix to store the sum of the two matrices.
- Traverse each element of the two matrices and add them.
- Store this sum in the new matrix at the corresponding index.
- Return the resultant matrix.
- Print the resultant matrix.
- If the sizes of both the matrices are not equal then print a message to try again.
- Stop.

Program 2: Add an M*N Matrix from User Input
In this program, we will add two matrices. When two matrices of order m*n and m*n are given, the resultant matrix produced will be of the order m*n. A point to be noted here is that to perform matrix addition the matrices should be of the same order.
Algorithm
- Start
- Declare variables for matrix size
- Initialize the number of rows and columns for the first matrix.
- Initialize the number of rows and columns for the second matrix.
- Check whether the size of both the matrices is equal or not.
- If equal, ask the user to initialize the two matrices.
- After initializing, print the two matrices.
- Create a new Matrix to store the sum of the two matrices
- Call a method that will return their sum.
- Traverse each element of the two matrices and add them.
- Store this sum in the new matrix at the corresponding index.
- Return the resultant matrix.
- Print the resultant matrix.
- If the sizes of both the matrices are not equal then print a message to try again.
- Stop.
