In the above example, we have initialized a two-dimensional int array
named test that has 3 "rows" and 2 "columns". Here, we have used the nested for loop to display the array elements. • the outer loop from i == 0 to i == 2 access the rows of the array • the inner loop from j == 0 to j == 1 access the columns of the array Finally, we print the array elements in each iteration.
Example 2: Taking Input for Two Dimensional Array
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main() { int numbers[2][3];
cout << "Enter 6 numbers: " << endl;
// Storing user input in the array
for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { for (int j = 0; j < 3; ++j) { cin >> numbers[i][j]; } }
cout << "The numbers are: " << endl;
// Printing array elements
for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { for (int j = 0; j < 3; ++j) { cout << "numbers[" << i << "][" << j << "]: " << numbers[i][j] << endl; } } return 0; }
Here, we have used a nested for loop to take the input of the 2d array. Once all the input has been taken, we have used another nested for loop to print the array members.
Example 3: Three Dimensional Array
// C++ Program to Store value entered by user in // three dimensional array and display it.
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main() { // This array can store upto 12 elements (2x3x2) int test[2][3][2] = { { {1, 2}, {3, 4}, {5, 6} }, { {7, 8}, {9, 10}, {11, 12} } };
// Displaying the values with proper index.
for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { for (int j = 0; j < 3; ++j) { for (int k = 0; k < 2; ++k) { cout << "test[" << i << "][" << j << "][" << k << "] = " << test[i][j][k] << endl; } } }
The basic concept of printing elements of a 3d array is similar to that of a 2d
array. However, since we are manipulating 3 dimensions, we use a nested for loop with 3 total loops instead of just 2:
• the outer loop from i == 0 to i == 1 accesses the first dimension of the array • the middle loop from j == 0 to j == 2 accesses the second dimension of the array • the innermost loop from k == 0 to k == 1 accesses the third dimension of the array As we can see, the complexity of the array increases exponentially with the increase in dimensions.
