Thread: sending arrays into functions

hi, this is probably a simple question but how would i send a multidimensional array called myArray[][] into a function...i understand how to do it if the array is like myOtherArray[]

i'd rather not have to change myArray[][] into myOtherArray[] since the double subscripts [][] are easy for me to work with than the single one []

this is basically my attempt at doing this:

Code:

void Tools(int myArray[][]);

int main()
{
int theArray[12][2];

for(k=0; k<12; k++)
{
	for(i=0; i<2; i++)
	{
		theArray[k][i] = i+k;
	}
}

    Tools(theArray);

    return 0;
}

void Tools(int myArray[][])
{

...
//stuff happens
...

}

thanks for all your help

You cannot pass a two dimensional array into a function like that. Specify the size of the second dimension (or use a 2-d vector).

hey thanks for the help guys i think i got it now
