A numerical simulation of fast magnetosonic shock wave formation during a two current loop collision is proposed. The magnetohydrodynamical model is used. It is shown that the rarefaction waves are generated in the initial stage when the two current loops start to collide. After the rarefaction waves propagate away from the exciting region, the fast magnetosonic waves with density enhancement can be produced for the case where the current strength of the loop is weak. When the current becomes strong enough, the magnetosonic shock waves can be generated in the direction perpendicular to that of two loops collision.
