declare two dimensional array of type double using dynamic memory allocation then write code to delete this two dimensional array???

double *dPtr[5] = new double[5];

delete[ ] dPtr;

[D_C]

  int WIDTH;
  int HEIGHT;
 
  cout << "Enter array width: ";
  cin >> WIDTH;
  cout << "Enter array height: ";
  cin >> HEIGHT;
 
  char* array2D = (char*)malloc(WIDTH*HEIGHT*sizeof(char));
  free(array2D);

i asked for a program which declares a two dimensional array of type double using dynamic memory allocation and then delete this array but im a begginer in c++ and i dont know how to completly write it ,i tried and thats it
#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{


double *dPtr[5]= new double[5];


delete[] dPtr;
cout<<&dPtr[]<<" "<<endl;
return 0;
}

Please don't double post

Unfortunately you have chosen to use the non-working code from this thread instead of the working code. There is no such thing as an allocated 2D array, it's in your head.

However you can simulate this imaginary concept like this

#include <iostream>
 
using namespace std;
 
int main()
{
    double *dPtr[5];
    double *data = new double[25];
 
    dPtr[0] = data;
    dPtr[1] = dPtr[0]+5;
    dPtr[2] = dPtr[1]+5;
    dPtr[3] = dPtr[2]+5;
    dPtr[4] = dPtr[3]+5;
 
    delete data;
 
//    cout<<&dPtr[]<<" "<<endl;
 
    return 0;
}
 

I have commented out the cout line because it is not at all clear what you where trying to achieve with it (especially after the data has been deleted).
