Hi,

I have a two dimensional vector and I am trying to access all the elements of one row at a time. I am getting a syntax error. Following is my code :


std::vector<int> row;
std::vector<std::vector<int> > event(5,row);

for(lv = 0; lv < 5; lv++)
{
for(int gno=event[lv].begin; gno != event[lv].end(); gno++)
{
//doing something
}

I am getting the following error while compiling:

error: cannot convert '__gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<int*, std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > >' to 'int' in initialization
error: no match for 'operator!=' in 'gno != (+ event_gate. std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::operator[] [with _Tp = std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> >, _Alloc = std::allocator<std::vector<int, std::allocator<int> > >](((long unsigned int)(lv / 5))))->std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::end [with _Tp = int, _Alloc = std::allocator<int>]()'

Please help! I am really stuck

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for quick reply. I have a small question. For better performance of the program (in terms of memory utilization and time for running the program) it is better to use vectors or data structure? Which data structure is best for fast search operation too?

Thanks

a vector is just about the most efficient resizeable sequence container.

> Which data structure is best for fast search operation too?
if the keys on which you want to search are not volatile (ie. you fill the vector once and then they do not change), just use a std::binary_search after sorting the vector on keys (use std::sort for this)
if the keys do change, use an associative container like std::map

Hi,

How can i clear the 2Dimenisonal vector ?

Thanks

You can clear it like this:

Notice if you do this, Not only the data stored is erased, also All elements is cleared, this might not be what you want to do ?

Hi,

If the size of my 2D vector is 5x5 (say) i want the vector to be empty and have no element in it . In other words I want the size of the vector to be 5x0.

What should i use?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the help. I have one more problem in the program. I have some non-unique values in the rows of 2 dimensional vectors. I am using unique to get the unique elements from the row. But i am not getting the unique elements. Following is my code:

std::vector<int> row;
std::vector<std::vector<int> > event(5,row);
std::vector<int>::iterator p, p_end;

for(lv=0; lv<5; lv++)
{
p_end = unique(event[lv].begin(), event[lv].end());

for(p = event[lv].begin(); p < p_end; p++)
{
doing something
}
}

I think p_end should point to the last unique element. But it is not working. What is wrong in the code?

Thanks

code for unique function please.
