How would I insert a 2D array into a std::vector?

The reason I'm using a std::vector of 2D arrays instead of a 3D vector is that the 2D array is a grid of short ints with a set size, while the amount of those grids that must be stored is not a set amount.

I get errors when doing this:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
 
#include <vector>

int main()
{
    std::vector <short[1][1]> grids;

    short grid[1][1] = {{0}};

    grids.insert(grids.end(), 1, grid);
}


The errors are in .h files from the standard library; two are about invalid array assignment. I guess this isn't how you assign arrays to vectors?

Thanks in advance,
Pyrius.

struct Element{
   short e[10][10];
};
...
std::vector<Element> grids;

No better way. Not that this is bad in any way...

Hm, too bad there isn't an easier way. At least it's possible, though. Thanks for answering.
