Question

I’m trying create a method that returns the sum of all values in an array list. I’m getting an error on this line sum+= setItem[x][y][z]; The error is

 expression must have pointer-to-object or handle-to-CLI-array type c:\Development\Source\Source\Source.cpp

full function

int getTotal(ArrayList^ set)
{
    int sum = 0;
    for each (Array^ setItem in set)
    {
        for(int x = 0; x< 3; x++)
        {
            for(int y = 0; y < setItem->Length; y++){
                for(int z = 0; z< setItem->Length; z++)
                {
                    sum+= setItem[x][y][z];
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return sum;
}

If setItem is multidimensional array, you need a different syntax: Try: sum+= setItem[x,y,z];
