can any one help me in writing my own code for this matrix functions?

please

An array function must be entered in a group of cells. Let us say you
have a 2x3 matrix in A1:C2. Another 3x4 matrix in D1:G3. The result is
a 2x4 matrix. Decide where you want this matrix entered, say in A9:D11.

Select A9:D11
Type in the formula bar: =MMULT(A1:C2, D1:G3)
Press Shift+Ctrl+Enter

Excel will place the resulting matrix in these cells. From this point
on, A9:D11 is a formula array and you can not delete part of it, only
the entire array (when in an formula array, Ctrl+/ will select the
entire array).

To edit, select the entire range, click in the formula bar, edit and
Shift+Ctrl+Enter again.

MINVERSE will work in a similar manner. Select the destination and
enter =MINVERSE(range). In this case of course, range must be a square
matrix as should the input.

hello thanks for the reply but what i want is something differrent i
want to see the internal coding i mean how mmult access variables in
the code and multiply in the code. can you help me in this regard?

The following code will emulate MMULT(). I have included some error
checking so that you see the code for returning an Excel error value.
The code below is not necessarily the best available but it illustrates
to some degree how ranges and variables can communicate. Further work
would require search in the .programming newsgroup. Also, for more
explicit handling of array variables inside a VBA routine the online
help on the Dim statement will be a good start.

==============

Option Base 1
Function MatrixMult(m1 As Range, m2 As Range) As Variant
Dim m 'This is the variable that will become an array and will be
returned
Dim a1, a2 'These are the variables into which we will read m1 and m2
Dim c As Range 'To be used in various checks.
' Error checking
' Any blanks or text in the cells?
For Each c In m1
If Not IsNumeric(c.Value) Or IsEmpty(c) Then
MatrixMult = CVErr(xlErrValue)
Exit Function
End If
Next c
For Each c In m2
If Not IsNumeric(c.Value) Or IsEmpty(c) Then
MatrixMult = CVErr(xlErrValue)
Exit Function
End If
Next c
' Do the two arrays have compatible dimensions?
If m1.Columns.Count < m2.Rows.Count Then
MatrixMult = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End If

' Everything OK, now the operations
' First dimensionalize the output matrix
ReDim m(m1.Rows.Count, m2.Columns.Count)
' Assign the ranges to the variables. No ReDim necessary here b/c of
assignment
a1 = m1
a2 = m2
' Now the loop to calculate the output matrix
For i = LBound(a1, 1) To UBound(a1, 1)
For j = LBound(a2, 2) To UBound(a2, 2)
tot = 0
For k = LBound(a1, 2) To UBound(a1, 2)
tot = tot + a1(i, k) * a2(k, j)
Next k
m(i, j) = tot
Next j
Next i
' Finally we assign the matrix to the function name
MatrixMult = m
End Function
