why is my output in hex?

Question

Hi, I am a beginner and was following some lessons and came up with this code.  It is supposed to run through a 2 dimensional array.  When I run it, all the numbers come out in hex instead of decimal.  here is the code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main (){

  int seats[2][3] = {

    {1, 2, 3},

    {4, 5, 6}

  };

  for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)

    {

      for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++)

{

cout << seats[j] << endl;

}

    }

}

Your code is trying to output an array of seats, but you are using the << operator to output the entire array, not its elements. Instead, you must use the indexes i and j to access individual array elements.

Here is the corrected code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main (){

  int seats[2][3] = {

    {1, 2, 3},

    {4, 5, 6}

  };

  for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)

    {

      for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++)

{

cout << seats[i][j] << endl;

}

    }

}
