Initializing a two dimensional std vector

0 votes

So, I have the following:

std::vector< std::vector <int> > fog;

and I am initializing it very naively like:

  for(int i=0; i<A_NUMBER; i++)
    {
            std::vector <int> fogRow;
            for(int j=0; j<OTHER_NUMBER; j++)
            {
                 fogRow.push_back( 0 );
            }
            fog.push_back(fogRow);
    }

And it feels very wrong... Is there another way of initializing a vector like this?

Assume you wish to start a 2D vector, m*n, with a value of 0.

We could do it.

#include<iostream>
int main(){ 
    int m = 2, n = 5;

    vector<vector<int>> vec(m, vector<int> (n, 0));

    return 0;
}

How to find out if an item is present in an std::vector?

The most straightforward solution is to count the total number of elements in the vector that have the specified value.  If the count is greater than zero, we've found our element.  This is simple to accomplish with the std::count function. #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <algorithm> int main() { ...READ MORE
