A tutorial contract testing two-dimensional array support in early Solidity.
Key Facts
Description
A tutorial contract from Cyrus Adkisson's solidity-baby-steps series testing two-dimensional array functionality. Creates a 2D array of uint8 values, populates it with test data, and provides getter functions to read individual elements.
Part of the numbered tutorial progression (contract #55) exploring more advanced data structures in Solidity. Cyrus deployed multiple iterations of this contract as he experimented with 2D array syntax and access patterns.
Source Verified
Exact creation bytecode match. Author Cyrus Adkisson published source at https://github.com/cyrusadkisson/solidity-baby-steps/blob/master/contracts/55_2D_array.sol. Batch-matched against 357 deploy TXs from deployer 0xcf684dfb8304729355b58315e8019b1aa2ad1bac.
