如何将矩阵传递给打印它的函数？

Question

I been asked to take a matrix of 4x5 and scan each row (that's why the for method) and then print the first half, and then teh second half.

I believe the problem isn't inside the function because they work fine on arrays

When it's trying to print I get random numbers and zeros -

Use same type as your array is:

void printFloats(size_t rows, size_t cols, float arr[rows][cols]);

int main(void)
{
    float matrix[4][5] = {
        {1,2,3,4,5},
        {10,20,30,40,50},
        {100,200,300,400,500},
        {1000,2000,3000,4000,5000},
    };

    printFloats( 4, 5, matrix);

}

void printFloats(sizet rows, size_t cols, float arr[rows][cols])
{
    for (size_t r = 0; r < rows; r++)
    {
        for (size_t c = 0; c < cols; c++)
        {

            printf("%8.2f", arr[r][c]);
        }
        printf("\n");
    }
}

Same with scan function:

void scanFloats(size_t rows, size_t cols, float arr[rows][cols])
{

    for (size_t r = 0; r < rows; r++)
    {
        for (size_t c = 0; c < cols; c++)
        {
            scanf("%f", &arr[r][c]);
        }
    }
}
