Getting exception error when trying matrix multiplication

Code works fine when both matrices have same number of rows and columns. like for eg. 3x3 and 3x3 matrix multiplication works fine.

Getting below error when trying to multiply matrices with different sizes. Tried multiplying a 2x3 matrix and a 3x4 matrix and got error.

**Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 1 out of bounds for length 1

The iteration bounds in the double for loop for printing the new matrix should match the previous for loops for multiplication. I think this correction in your code will make it work.

for(int i=0;i<row1;i++)//Here
        {
            for(int j=0;j<col2;j++)//And here
            {
                System.out.print(c[i][j]);

            }
            System.out.println("");
        }

Generally speaking, in situations like this it will help if you set breakpoints in the lines where the problem is and then using the debugger.
