如何在 C++ 中声明动态二维数组

Question

I'm trying to define a dynamic 2D Array in C++ using the following definition:

int foo(string parameter){
    const int n = parameter.length();
    int* Array = new int[n][n];
return 0;
}

I receive an error that array size in new expression must be constant, can't understand why because Array is supposed to be dynamic.

Answer 1

(someone posted a shorter version of this in the comments while I was writing it).

What you need for a 2D array allocated with new is this:

int foo(string parameter){
    const int n = parameter.length();
    int* Array = new int[n*n];
    return 0;
}

And then access cells with appropriate indexing.

Another solution is to use vector .

int foo(string parameter){
    const int n = parameter.length();
    vector<vector<int>> Array(n, vector<int>(n));
    return 0;
}
