hi fellow coders, what is the best data structure to store a grid / matrix, with 2 Keys (row, col), and the Values (cell entries) can be any object? Similar to a 2-dimensional array, but i am trying to avoid using arrays.
Specifically i am trying to implement an "Availabili ty Calendar", where i want to show RoomTypes as row headers (variable number), and Weekdays as column headers (fixed, limited to 2 weeks at a time); and the intersection being all information about the particular cell (e.g. booked, available, guest names, etc).
..............1/Mon....2/Tue....3/Wed....14/Sun

Type2

etc...

Thanks in advance.

Or creative use of a dictionary.
Key is the room number since that is unique.
Definition is a custom object with the room details.
Always think classes when doing object oriented programming.

What is the best way to use a cookie to remember a logged in user? Would
you store the username and password in two separate cookies? Should the

Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi. I'm attempting to write a roguelike (think nethack, crawl, angband,
tome, adom, and yes, I suppose even rogue) in Perl and I've ran into a
problem regarding the data structure for the map and handling it easily.
A map is one 2D level, a simple grid. Each tile on the grid will be a
hash of data about the grid. The map object itself has other bits of
data, so that's why I don't just make the object an anonymous array:
$map->{Map} = {...

would be the best way to save these preferences out to an XML file? Use the
