The code is :

#include<iostream>
#include<vector>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    vector<vector<int>> arr;

    int i, j;

    for (i = 0; i < 5; i  )
    {
        for (j = 0; j < 5; j  )
        {
            cin >> arr[i][j];
        }
    }

    return 0;

}

Compilation is successful. But, when I tried to run the code in Visual Studio (2013) I got runtime error "vector subscript out of range".

Why am I getting this run time error ? Is this the correct way to read 2D array input from user ?

CodePudding user response：

Because the vector arr is empty in your code.

#include<iostream>
#include<vector>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    vector<vector<int>> arr;
    cout << arr.size() << endl;       // output: 0
    cout << arr.empty() << endl;      // output: 1 , it means arr is empty

    // First way
    vector<vector<int>> arr1(5, vector<int>(5));
    
    int i, j;

    // Second way
    arr.resize(5);
    for (i = 0; i < 5; i  ) {
        for (j = 0; j < 5; j  ) {
            int temp;
            cin >> temp;
            arr[i].emplace_back(temp);
        }
    }

    return 0;
}
