int multiply_matrices
(
	Matrix **target_mpp,
	const Matrix *first_mp,
	const Matrix *second_mp
);

DESCRIPTION

This routine multiplies two matrices. The matrices must be compatable for muliplication, or ERROR is returned. The first argument is a pointer to the target matrix. If the target matrix itself is null, then a matrix of the appropriate size is created. If the target matrix is the wrong size, it is resized. Finally, if it is the right size, then the storage is recycled, as is.

RETURNS

NO_ERROR on success, and ERROR on failure, with an error message being set.

DISCLAIMER

This software is not adequatedly tested. It is recomended that results are checked independantly where appropriate.
