Creating An Array Containing The Sum Of Each Column Elements

In this article, we'll explore how to create an array containing the sum of each column elements in a given 2D array.

As you have now understood the concept, first try to solve the problem by yourself before you look into the below solution.

Understanding the Problem

Given a 2D array, our objective is to calculate the sum of elements in each column and store these sums in another array. Each element of the new array will represent the sum of elements in the corresponding column of the original array.

Approach

To create an array containing the sum of each column elements in a given array , we'll follow these steps:
Initialize Arrays

We'll create an array to store the sums of each column elements. The size of this array will be equal to the number of columns in the original array.

1. Calculate Column Sums

We'll iterate through each column of the original array and calculate the sum of elements in each column.

2. Store Sums

 We'll store the sums of each column elements in the new array.

3. Print the Results

Finally, we'll print the contents of the array containing the column sums.

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Initialize Arrays

We'll start by creating an array to store the sums of each column elements. The size of this array will be equal to the number of columns in the original array.
