Program Explanation

In this C# Program, we are reading the elements of the 2-Dimensional matrix. Using for loop assign the value of ‘a[i,j]’ variable to b[] array variable. Increment the value of base index ‘k’ variable. Print the value of one dimensional array.

Runtime Test Cases
 
Enter the Elements :
a[0,0]=3
a[0,1]=7
a[0,2]=1
a[1,0]=9
a[1,1]=34
a[1,2]=23
Given 2-D Array(Matrix) is :
1  4  3
7  3  8
Converted 1-D Array is :
1
4
3
7
3
