The title of this page suggests it should really be two tasks: [[Create a multidimensional array]] and [[Read command-line arguments]] --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 20:56, 12 November 2007 (MST)
::Whether or not this is divided into multiple tasks, a more concise name must be possible, I'd think. --[[User:TBH|TBH]] 14:53, 10 January 2008 (MST)
: The point of this task is not ''how'' exactly the numbers are obtained, but that they are ''not known'' at compile time. That is, you cannot use any features of the language which depend on compile-time knowledge of the array size. As a concrete example, in C++ you cannot simply write
double** array = new double[dim1][dim2];
because for that dim2 would have to be a compile time constant. It ''would'' be a solution if you dropped the requirement that ''both'' dimensions are given at run time. --[[User:Ce|Ce]] 12:41, 11 January 2008 (MST)
