well, here is an example in good old C. it creates a two dimntional
character array. Note that there are no Strings in C yet there are
some in C++ and other languages. This example can work for other data
types like integers floats, etc etc.
*/
//declare a 2 string character array.
char maskData[numberOfROWS][numberOfColmns];
//since is a string copy string one into the first row. Notice that we
//do this because is a string. You do not use the string copy function
//for integers or other types. I did it this way because there must be
//millions of examples with integers but only a handfull with strings
//or character.
strcpy(&maskData[0][0], "SOme STring in row one);
//Copy string two into the second row.
strcpy(&maskData[1][0], "A String in row two);
//now pass the 2d array as an argument. Note that I'm also passing
//another variable that is not necessary to pass but is nice to see
//there.
someFunction(someIntegerVarriable, twoDarray);
//Finally here how the function will look like on the receiving end
//Note that you must specified the size of the rows and columns.
void someFunction(int someVar, char a2DArray[2][numberOfColums])
