> There are two types of multiplication for matrices: scalar multiplication and 
> matrix multiplication. Scalar multiplication is easy. You just take a number 
> (called a "scalar") and multiply it on every entry in the matrix. For example,
> For the following matrix A, find 2A :
> 2A = 2- {[a, b], [c, d]} = {[2- a, 2- b], [2- c, - d]}
> however, matrix multiplication is quite another story. We need to multiply 
> the ROWS of A by the COLUMNS of B. By this I mean that I first take the first 
> row of A and the first column of B, and we multiply the first entries, then 
> the second entries, and then the third entries, and then we add the three 
> products. The sum is one entry in the product matrix AB.
