2D Array in Kotlin


You may use this line of code for an Integer array.

val array = Array(row) { IntArray(column) }

This line of code is pretty simple and works like 1D array and also can be accessible like java 2D array.


You are trying to put your IntArrays inside another array to make it 2-dimensional.The type of that array cannot be intArray, which is why this fails.Wrap your initial arrays with arrayOf instead of intArrayOf.

val even: IntArray = intArrayOf(2, 4, 6)val odd: IntArray = intArrayOf(1, 3, 5)val lala: Array<IntArray> = arrayOf(even, odd)


Short Answer:

// A 6x5 array of Int, all set to 0.var m = Array(6) {Array(5) {0} }

Here is another example with more details on what is going on:

// a 6x5 Int array initialise all to 0var m = Array(6, {i -> Array(5, {j -> 0})})

The first parameter is the size, the second lambda method is for initialisation.
