Help me with matrix...please!!!!!!!

how to use three two dimensional arrays. how to get this program :
� Ask size (rows and columns) of matrix A (using message dialog box)
� Ask size of Matrix B
� Check the sizes of A and B, if not compatible display waning
message and exit the program
� Input matrix A (using message dialog box),
� Input matrix B
� Multiply A and B giving matrix C
� Display matrix A and matrix B to command window
� Display matrix C to command window
The output looks like
Matrix A:
1.0 2.0 3.0
4.0 5.0 6.0
Matrix B:
7.0 8.0 9.0
0.0 9.0 8.0
7.0 6.0 5.0
Product of Matrix A and B:
28.0 44.0 40.0
70.0 113.0 106.0

thank you

Hey Rush

I don't undersatnd what your question is ?

1> Do you want to know how the code works.
2> Do you want to know the concept behind two-dimensional arrays in java.
