(If my question is stupid,it is because i am a student)
In my program when i declare my big vector i get "stack overflow"
cin >> big_number;
vector<int> my_vector[big_number];
** stack-overflow** ... (note: in the example above the big_number can take values up to 1.000.000)
In my understanding,this happens because variable-sized vectors are placed on the stack (instead of the default heap).
How can i put this 2d vector on the heap? Is putting the user-defined vector on the heap a "bad practice'?
