    PASSINAG A bidimansional array at a function

    how do I pass as referance a bidimansional array ata function?

    this
    int a[1][2];
    void f(int **b);
    doesnt work ! type mismatch.

    -i found this way ...
    struct c
    {
    int *p[2];
    } array;

    voit initNewType()
    {
    array.p[0] = &(a[0][0]);
    array.p[1] = &(a[0][1]);
    }

    void f(c *value)
    { //how do i move the array index thru the bidimansioal array?????
    *((*value).p[i]+j); //value at a[j][i]....but there 's a mistake someone can help me?
    //there's a simpler solution instead that using this mess?

    }
    main()
    { f(&array);
    }

    ///there's a esyer way to pass by referance a duble array?


    if you emailme to [email protected] i'll really apprciate it!

    Please don't cross-post. It's considered extremely rude.
    My best code is written with the delete key.

    One solution is a pointer to a 2-dimentional array.

    void f(int ***data)
    {}

    >void f(int ***data)
    That's not a pointer to a two dimensional array. It's a pointer to a pointer to a pointer which would likely constitute a pointer to a dynamically simulated two dimensional array. But the question was about arrays, not pointers.

    If you are going to change the arrays content, then you do not need to pass it by reference
    Code:
    void f(int arr[4][4]);
    
    int main(){
       int myArray[4][4];
       f(myArray);
       return 0;
    }
    But if you are going to allocate it dinamically, within the function for example, then you must pass int***.
    Nothing more to tell about me...
    Happy day =)

    and some bad rep to-boot just for your troubles
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
