What is Matrix product?

Definition 30.2 High School Mathematics · Chapter 30 — Matrices and Graphs

Let AA be m×nm \times n and BB be n×pn \times p. The product ABAB is the m×pm \times p matrix whose (i,j)(i,j) entry is

(AB)ij=k=1naikbkj(AB)_{ij} = \sum_{k=1}^{n} a_{ik} b_{kj}

(the “row ii of AA times column jj of BB” rule).
