Displaying an Array in a nested for loop

Lizarddemon94 (2)
Hello, I am attempting to make a Sudoku solver, and i am having issues getting the grid to display, i have the values saved as a [9][9] array, and i am trying to get them to display using a nested for loop that should go through each group and display them, but it wont display them, the program does compile and run without any errors.
here is the code for the display
1

5

7
8
9
10
11
 
void drawGrid()
{
    for (int f = 0; f > 9; f++)
    {
        for (int g = 0; g > 9; g++)
        {
            cout << grid[g][f] << " ";
        }
        cout << "\n";
    }
}

and here is the project

            cout << "Good Bye." << endl;
            return 0;
            break;
        }
    }
    while(true);
}

void defGrid()
{
    for (int y = 0; y > 9; y++)
    {
        for (int x = 0; x > 9; x++)
        {
            grid[x][y] = 0;
        }
    }
}


i moved the display to top section for easier viewing.

In your nested for loops you're using > 9 instead of < 9. Put < 9 and it should work (haven't looked through the rest of your code though).

Yeah, that was the issue, thank you very much.
