I get a compile time error having something to do with the way I am passing 2-d arrays to methods: gameoflife.cpp:5:25: error: array has incomplete element type 'int []' void print_game(int game[][], int http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24022367/c-compile-error-array-has-incomplete-element-type-int SIZE); gameoflife.cpp:6:23: error: array has incomplete element type 'int []' void run_game(int game[][], int SIZE); gameoflife.cpp:7:23: error: array has incomplete element type 'int []' void set_cell(int game[][], int i, int j, int next[][], int SIZE); etc. The beginning of my code is: void print_game(int game[][], int SIZE); void run_game(int game[][], int SIZE); void set_cell(int game[][], int i, int j, int next[][], int SIZE); Evidently the problem begins here. What is the issue with passing a 2-d array in a method?
