Function Documentation

genArray()

void genArray	(	int **	a,
		int	r,
		int	c )

Arrange sequence of numbers from '1' in a matrix form

Parameters

[out]	a	matrix to fill
[in]	r	number of rows
[in]	c	number of columns

                                     {
    int value = 1;
    for (int i = 0; i < r; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < c; j++) {
            a[i][j] = value;
            std::cout << a[i][j] << " ";
            value++;
        }
        std::cout << std::endl;
    }
