This is not a good solution if I don't want to load STL because of memory constrains.

@katta most nontrivial C++ programs do use STL anyway, so this is a good solution, just not for some minor number of cases including yours.

What I don't understand is why so many people think of the first index as the rows, and the second as the columns. Rebellion against XY coordinate diagrams in math class?

@Dronz It's because that's the C++ memory model -- the columns are contiguous in memory, not the rows. In Fortran it's the other way.

@LeviMorrison Oh! That actually makes intuitive sense to me in this case, thanks! (I was thinking it was related to how many modern graphics coordinates use X and Y.)
