C++ how to initialize and fill 2D vector of class

I'm fairly new to c++, trying to figure out how to use vector's syntax.
Say I want to initialize and fill a 2D vector based on input



Cell 
int x, y;
public:
Cell();
....
;

Grid
vector<vector<Cell>> theGrid;

public:
void init(int n);
;


whats wrong with this



void Grid::init(int n)
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
for (int j = 0; j < n; ++j)
Cell c;
theGrid.[i].emplace_back(c);

  • theGrid.[i].emplace_back(c); should be theGrid[i].emplace_back(c);

    theGrid.resize(n, vector<Cell>(n)); is all that's needed.

  • @IgorTandetnik resize is not suitable in case if the vector is not empty.

You have several problems there: syntax errors, access out of bounds, using loops instead of the STL power.



void Grid::init(int n)
theGrid = std::vector<vector<Cell>>(n, std::vector<Cell>(n, Cell()));

As for your code:



theGrid.[i].emplace_back(c);


Here you have a ".[i].", so that is syntax error... So, we have to write the syntax correctly which yields:



theGrid[i].emplace_back(c);


Or:



theGrid.at(i).emplace_back(c);


You don't even need to do that... Just use the vector's constructor:



theGrid = std::vector<std::vector<Cell>>(n, std::vector<Cell>(n));
