How to multiply matrix with matrix, only between their component counterparts

Hi,

if I have matrices A and B

A=[ 1 2 ; 3 4]

B=[10 20; 30 40]

are there a fast/straightforward operation in which the result is matrix C

C=[1x10 2x20 ; 3x30 4x40] ?

Obviously, calculation with 4 loops is what I would like to avoid.

Thank you in advance.

you need to multiplication element by element. you should use a dot (.) before any multiplication (*), division (/), or power (^) operators that involve vectors.

A=[ 1  2 ; 3 4];
B=[10  20; 30  40];
C=A.*B

C = 2×2

10 40 90 160
