2D Array

[johnsonj1585]

Apologies, I am new here and short on time so sorry if this is the incorrect place to be posting. I am just trying to finish my semester and coding has been the bane of my existence because I understand it very little. I am working on a 2D Array project and don't really understand how to get both columns and rows. Here is what I have so far along with txt file information. Any advice in simple terms about how to achieve the rows and columns would be super helpful. The visitor information is supposed to be 9 columns and 12 rows while the months is supposed to be 12 rows.

#include "pch.h"
#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<string>
#include<fstream>

using namespace std;


int main()
{
double visitors[9];
double months[12];

ifstream inputVisitors;
inputVisitors.open("Visitors.txt");

ifstream inputMonths;
inputMonths.open("Months.txt");


for (int index = 0; index <12; index++)
inputVisitors >> visitors[index];

for (int index = 0; index < 12; index++)
cout << (index + 1) << " " << visitors[index] << endl;


inputVisitors.close();

system("pause");
return 0;
}

Try something like this, however if you want to read in strings you'll need to use a string array.

int visitors[12][9];
for (int index = 0; index < 12; index++)
	{
		for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
		{
			inputvisitors >> visitors[index][i];
		}
	}
