    Exclamation Grids, Matrix, 2D Arrays...

    HURRY!!!

    I need to know how to create a 10 x 10 grid (or matrix or array, whatever the name is) by 11:00!!

    I know this is about as last-minute as you can get, but I know you guys can help.

    I'm not asking for a program, so don't think I'm lazy. I just can't figure out how to creat a 10x10 grid and then select a random location on that grid.

    I think I've got the location down, but mine may be wrong...

    Thanks

    int mygrid[10][10]

    Then just pick 2 random numbers (instructions in the FAQ) and access that location

    point = mygrid[x][y];


    where point is where you want to store the value, and x and y are random numbers.

    Another way w/ Randgen.h?

    Thanks for that quick response, but is there another way somehow using randgen.h (from the ap computer science on collegeboard.com) and the functions in there (randomVals.RandInt(low, high))?

    Sounds like it, but I never took APCS... What's wrong with the method in the FAQ?
