Someone can explain me this code line by line?

Question

int width, height;
cin >> width >> height;
char **tab = new char*[width];
for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) {
tab[x] = new char[height];
}

Answer 1

Width and height are the input using cin. You basically allocate memory for a pointer to a pointer which is a 2d array of size width*height.

Answer 2

Because in memory that's how a 2d array is stored.

Answer 3

No problem. :)

Answer 4

Thanks ;) But why use this double **?

Answer 5

Because of the double array?
