Hello,
Just started using Julia and I've come across an issue trying to create and
append values to arrays of empty arrays.
What I want to do is create a grid of empty arrays that can be filled with
values associated with particle IDs for a molecular dynamics-style
simulation. The trouble I'm having is that it does not seem possible to
initialize the arrays so that they can be iteratively filled.
here is an example of the problem:
julia> bins = Array(Array, 5, 5)
5x5 Array{Array{T,N},2}:
#undef #undef #undef #undef #undef
#undef #undef #undef #undef #undef
#undef #undef #undef #undef #undef
#undef #undef #undef #undef #undef
#undef #undef #undef #undef #undef
julia> bins[1, 1] = 0
ERROR: MethodError: `convert` has no method matching
convert(::Type{Array{T,N}}, ::Int64)
This may have arisen from a call to the constructor Array{T,N}(...),
since type constructors fall back to convert methods.
Closest candidates are:
call{T}(::Type{T}, ::Any)
convert(::Type{Array{T,N}}, ::SharedArray{T,N})
convert{T,N}(::Type{Array{T,N}}, ::AbstractArray{T,N})
...
in setindex! at array.jl:314
I don't understand what the error message means, I have tried initializing
with different datatypes, but it does not work. Any help would be
appreciated.
