Consider the following two-dimensional array and answer the questions given below:
int x[ ][ ] = {{4,3,2}, {7,8,2}, {8, 3,10}, {1, 2, 9}};(a) What is the order of the array?
(b) What is the value of x[0][0]+x[2][2]?
Define a class to accept values into 4x4 array and find and display the sum of each row.
Example:
A[][]={{1,2,3,4},{5,6,7,8},{1,3,5,7},{2,5,3,1}}
Output:
sum of row 1 = 10 (1+2+3+4) sum of row 2 = 26 (5+6+7+8) sum of row 3 = 16 (1+3+5+7) sum of row 4 = 11 (2+5+3+1)Define a class to accept values into an integer array of order 4 x 4 and check whether it is a DIAGONAL array or not. An array is DIAGONAL if the sum of the left diagonal elements equals the sum of the right diagonal elements. Print the appropriate message.
Example:
3 4 2 5
2 5 2 3
5 3 2 7
1 3 7 1Sum of the left diagonal element = 3 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 11
Sum of the right diagonal element = 5 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 11
