initialize a multidimensional C array of variable size to zero

Question

I want to initialize a two-dimensional array of variable size to zero. I know it can be done for a fixed-sized array:

int myarray[10][10] = {0};

Answer 1

Online C99 Standard (n1256 draft), Section 6.7.8, para 3:

The type of the entity to be initialized shall be an array of unknown size or an object type that is not a variable length array type.

Emphasis mine.

As everyone else has said, your best bet is to use memset().
