I am trying to (right now anyway), to display a maze from a data file. The first grouping of numbers is the size, the second the entrance, and the third are for the exit coordinates.
I have a simple input file named "MyMaze1.dat":
7 20
0 18
6 12
****************** *
* * ***** *

The code I use to read this maze:
void MazeClass::ReadMaze(ifstream& mazedata){
mazedata >> row >> column;
GetExit(mazedata);
GetEntrance(mazedata);
maze= new char*[row];
for (unsigned i=0; i<row;i++)
{
maze[i]=new char[column];
}
/*
maze=new char[column];
*maze[i]=new char[column];
*/
for (int y=0;y<column;y++)
{//Keeping the maze inside boundries (step 1)
for (int x=0;x<row;x++)//(Step 2)
{
maze[x][y]=mazedata.get();
}
}
}
and the code I use to display the maze is:
void MazeClass::Display(){
cout << "Entrance is: " << entx << ' ' << enty << endl;
cout << "Exit is: " << exitx << ' ' << exity << endl;
cout << "Maze is: " << endl;
for (int y=0;y<column;y++)
{
for (int x=0;x<row;x++)
{
cout << maze[x][y];
}
cout << endl;
}
}
The output of which looks like:
Entrance is: 6 12
Exit is: 0 18
Maze is:

Thank you ahead of time for all the help.

) when reading the maze data.for (int y=0; y < rows; y++) // rows outer
{
for (int x=0;x < columns ;x++)// columns inner
{
maze[y][x]=mazedata.get(); // Swapped y and x
}
mazedata.get(); // skip \n
}
Same change's needed for Display
