double array code fails

[CodeGrommet]

Hi all. The following code gives the error below. I'm coding against
minGW. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me where I have
gone wrong.

/*********************************** code

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(){
string dogs[][] = { {"terry", "brown"} ,
{"Kristin", "white"} ,
{"toby", "gray"},
{"fido", "black"}
};
cout<<dogs[0][0]<<endl;
}

/******************************** error message

Hi,
Just doing what the error message told you to do (and adding string as
header):
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main(){
string dogs[][2] = { {"terry", "brown"} ,
{"Kristin", "white"} ,
{"toby", "gray"},
{"fido", "black"}
};
cout<<dogs[0][0]<<endl;
cout<<dogs[0][1]<<endl;
}

Hm,

and it would be a good habbit to add

return 0;

At the end (indicating no error as return value)

What part of

declaration of `dogs' as multidimensional array must have bounds for
all dimensions except the first

is it that you do not understand?

BTW: you need to include <stringto get the printing to work.

Thank you very much :)

[CodeGrommet]

btw, the code runs without the string include.
