Matrix Arithmetic
Learn how to overload the arithmetic operators in C++.
In this lesson, we’ll learn how to enable arithmetic operations using Matrix
objects. To make these operations possible, we need to overload the operators.
Addition (+
)
Let’s consider a scenario where we’re not familiar with objects, and we have two matrices, m1
and m2
. Our objective is to perform the sum of these matrices. Without objects, we would typically achieve this by iterating through each element of m1
and m2
using nested loops and adding the corresponding elements together.
Now, let’s explore an alternative approach using objects. What if we create two objects, m1
and m2
, and want to perform the matrix summation?
