Output:

Enter matrix1 elements:
Elements: matrix1[0][0]: 11
Elements: matrix1[0][1]: 22
Elements: matrix1[1][0]: 33
Elements: matrix1[1][1]: 44
Enter matrix2 elements:
Elements: matrix2[0][0]: 55
Elements: matrix2[0][1]: 66
Elements: matrix2[1][0]: 77
Elements: matrix2[1][1]: 88
Matrix1:
11 22
33 44
Matrix2:
55 66
77 88
Addition of two matrices:
66 88
110 132

Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt package that includes the files of package fmt then we can use a function related to the fmt package.

In the main() function, we created two 2X2 matrices using a two-dimensional array.

fmt.Printf("Enter matrix1 elements: \n")
for i:=0;i<2;i++{
    for j:=0;j<2;j++{
        fmt.Printf("Elements: matrix1[%d][%d]: ",i,j)
        fmt.Scanf("%d",&matrix1[i][j])
    }
}
    
fmt.Printf("Enter matrix2 elements: \n")
for i:=0;i<2;i++{
    for j:=0;j<2;j++{
        fmt.Printf("Elements: matrix2[%d][%d]: ",i,j)
        fmt.Scanf("%d",&matrix2[i][j])
    }
}

In the above code, we read elements for matrix1 and matrix2 from the user.

//Add both matrix1 and matrix2
for i:=0;i<2;i++{
    for j:=0;j<2;j++{
        matrix3[i][j]=matrix1[i][j]+matrix2[i][j]
    }
}

In the above code, we added two matrices and printed the result on the console screen.
