Re: How to pass multi-dimensional array?

I like the pointer notation for the parameter,
because that makes it more obvious what the parameter really is.

If I declared it the way you suggest, the compiler I use most frequently would insist on reminding me that I should declare 'm' to be const. It issues no such reminder when I use "int m[][10]", even though that's functionally equivalent to your declaration. I can't turn off that reminder without turning off other 'const'-related reminders that I actually find useful.

It's annoying how stupid things like that can affect your programming style.
