Thread: help to display an array

Im working on a program that will esentially open a file read it and output the info on a new file. The contents of the file is simply an array...so i start by declaring the array however when i want the C: window to display my output
instead of getting my array i get 0012FF34..what gives?

is it throwing me a random value instead of displaying my array or is it
giving me the address

thanx in advance

im a newbie to C++ so please cope with my lack of knowledge

Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
int main()
{
    
    int jane[4][3]= {{0,0,0},{0,1,1}, {1,0,1}, {1,1,0} };
    



	cout << "the matrix is:\t" << jane << endl;
    
    
    return 0;
    
}

so it would be something like:

Code:

.
.
.
.

int jane[4]={ A,B,C,D};

cout << "the matrix is" << jane << endl;

or

cout << A<< endl;
cout << B<< endl;
.
.
.
return 0;
}

I over simplified the array by giving it a simpe 1,2,3,4 input and it still gives me
a similar address like output...

juju

To access individual elements in an array you need to use something like cout << jane[element];

So use a loop to loop through, incrementing a counter, to print out each element.

Any tutorial on arrays you can find online would tell you how to do all this.

thanx let me try that

yes it actually holds for the simplified version...it should hold for the "more complex matrix" i initially though i had to mess with main or do something like:

Code:

void main(int n,int i,int j);

well it gave me 4 adresses in matrix order but ill keep on moving it around to see if it works

thanx dave..you didnt have to take the time and work on my program....

i greatly appreciate it

I owe you lunch
