Question 52
Write a program that reads a 4 x 5 two dimensional array and then prints the column sums of the array along with the array printed in matrix form.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class KboatDDAColSum
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
int arr[][] = new int[4][5];
System.out.println("Enter the 2D array:");
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
System.out.println("Enter elements of row " + (i + 1));
for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
arr[i][j] = in.nextInt();
}
}
System.out.println("Input array :");
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
System.out.print(arr[i][j] + "\t");
}
System.out.println();
}
//Compute column-wise sum
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
int cSum = 0;
for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++) {
cSum += arr[j][i];
}
System.out.println("Column " + (i + 1)
+ " sum = " + cSum);
}
}
}Output
Key Concepts Covered
This question tests your understanding of the following concepts from the chapter Arrays: Question, Program, Reads, Dimensional, Array, Then. These are fundamental topics in Computer Applications that students are expected to master as part of the ICSE Class 10 curriculum.
A thorough understanding of these concepts will help you answer similar questions confidently in your ICSE examinations. These topics are frequently tested in both objective and subjective sections of Computer Applications papers. We recommend revising the relevant section of your textbook alongside practising these solved examples to build a strong foundation.
How to Approach This Question
