Output:

Alternatively, to get the position of the maximum product: <lang julia>function maxprod(mat, len)

   nrow, ncol = size(mat)
   maxprod, maxrow, maxcol, arr = 0, 0:0, 0:0, [0]
   for row in 1:nrow, col in 1:ncol
       if row < nrow - len + 2
           pro = prod(mat[row:row+len-1, col])
           if pro > maxprod
               maxprod, maxrow, maxcol, arr = pro, row:row+len-1, col:col, mat[row:row+len-1, col]
           end
       end
       if col < ncol - len + 2
           pro = prod(mat[row, col:col+len-1])
           if pro > maxprod
               maxprod, maxrow, maxcol, arr = pro, row:row, col:col+len-1, mat[row, col:col+len-1]
           end
       end
   end
   println("The maximum product is $maxprod, product of $arr at row $maxrow, col $maxcol")

end

maxprod(mat, 4)

</lang>

Output:
The maximum product is 51267216, product of [66, 91, 88, 97] at row 7:10, col 16:16
