Thread: Tile based in console...?

ARGGH
Somehow I think curiosity is going to kill the cat her but...
Is it possible to make a console tile game. I was thinking about using a 2d array of numbers. 1 can be walked on 0 cant.
Lets say this is my array:

Int array[6][6]=
[111111]
[100011]
[100001]
[101001]
[100001]
[100001]
[111111];

(Msvc++)

this would mean a whole different movement then Ive been using. (Just a gech(); switch with putxy()

how could I go about making the 1's apear as a specific character and the zeros as well. Thanks if you can help

Code:

for (int i=0; i<6; i++)
{
     for (int j=0; j<6; j++)
     {
          switch(array[6][6])
          {
          case 1:
               cout << char1;
               break;
          case 0:
               cout << char0;
               break;
          }
     }
     cout << "\n";
}

It's simple as that. char1 and char2 can be any character you'd like to show.
