Really, are multidimensional arrays an important part of the language?
The above code looks like it's indexing into an array of pointers. If you want a flat array, make a few inlined helper functions that do the multiplying and adding. Your code will be much cleaner and easier to understand.
- Joker_vD 4y agoOf course multidimensional arrays are an important part of the language, just as the ability to have structs inside structs. > The above code looks like it's indexing into an array of pointers. If you want a flat array, make a few inlined helper functions that do the multiplying and adding. Your code will be much cleaner and easier to understand. It is a "flat" array already, not an array of pointers: [0]. No need to write the code that compiler generates for you already. [0] https://godbolt.org/z/x3cPf3TvT https://godbolt.org/z/x3cPf3TvT
- ErikCorry 4y agoI am aware that it's flat already.
- int_19h 4y agoThe code above does not mention any pointer types, so why would you assume that it's indexing into an array of pointers? I can't think of any reason why get(a, i, j) is more readable than a[i][j].
