Take a look at the default constructor and operator[] for vector. vector() : start(0), finish(0), end_of_storage(0) {} reference operator[](size_type n) { return *(begin() + n); } iterator begin() { return start; } Your instantiation of of mymatrix will create n 0-element vectors with start ptrs set to null. This is why the deref is failing. Here's a fix. for (int i = 0;i < n;i++){ mymatrix[i].resize(n); for (int j = 0;j < n;j++) mymatrix[i][j] = 0; } -- John F.
