two dimensional array python w3 code example

Example 1: how to make an array python

#arrays and lists are different
#numpy arrays are faster
this_is_a_list = [1, 2, 3]
import numpy #is you do not have it do pip install numpy
this_is_an_array = numpy.array([1, 2, 3])

Example 2: two dimensional array python

# Creates a list containing 5 lists, each of 8 items, all set to 0
w, h = 8, 5;
Matrix = [[0 for y in range(h)] for x in range(w)] 

Matrix[0][0] = 1
Matrix[0][6] = 3 # error! range... 
Matrix[6][0] = 3 # valid
