c++ - less verbose way to declare multidimensional std::array

Question

Short question: Is there a shorter way to do this

array<array<atomic<int>,n>,m> matrix;

I was hoping for something like

array< atomic< int>,n,m> matrix;    

but it doesnt work...

Answer 1

A template alias might help out:

#include <array>

template <class T, unsigned I, unsigned J>
using Matrix = std::array<std::array<T, J>, I>;

int main()
{
    Matrix<int, 3, 4> matrix;
}
