How do I declare a two dimensional array?

Question

What\'s the easiest way to create a 2d array. I was hoping to be able to do something similar to this:

declare int d[0..m, 0..n]

Answer 1

Firstly, PHP doesn't have multi-dimensional arrays, it has arrays of arrays.

Secondly, you can write a function that will do it:

function declare($m, $n, $value = 0) {
  return array_fill(0, $m, array_fill(0, $n, $value));
}
