Cannot read functor class in any way - c++

Question

Alright, I'm implementing a dynamic 2-dimensional matrix class. For a basis, this is what I have so far:
template <typename Type>
class dyMatrix {
private:
Type *mat;
int lines, columns;
int length;
void assimilate (const dyMatrix<Type>& that) {
lines = that.lines;
columns = that.columns;
length = that.length;
}
public:
dyMatrix (int height, int width)
: lines(height), columns(width), mat(0)
{
length = lines * columns;
mat = new Type[length];
};
// ---
int getLines() {
return lines;
};
int getColumns() {
return columns;
};
int getLength() {
return length;
}
// ---
Type& operator() (int i, int j) {
return mat[j * columns + i];
};
Type& operator() (int i) {
return mat[i];
};
// ---
dyMatrix (const dyMatrix<Type>& that) {
this->assimilate(that);
// ---
mat = new Type[length];
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
mat[i] = that.mat[i];
}
};
dyMatrix& operator= (const dyMatrix<Type>& that) {
Type *local_mat = new Type[that.length];
for (int i = 0; i < that.length; i++) {
local_mat[i] = that.mat[i];
}
// ---
this->assimilate(that);
delete[] mat;
mat = local_mat;
// ----
return *this;
};
~dyMatrix() {
delete mat;
};
};
My problem is that I've been having some specific problems when trying to read input into it. For example, I have the following main():
int main() {
int lanes, cols;
cin >> lanes >> cols;
dyMatrix<int> map(lanes, cols);
/* CONTINUE READING */
cout << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
cout << map(i, j) << ' ';
}
cout << endl;
}
}
Where it is a commented section, if I put the following lines of code:
int aux;
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
cin >> map(i, j);
}
}
or:
int aux;
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
cin >> aux;
map(i, j) = aux;
}
}
or even:
int aux;
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
cin >> aux;
map(i, j) = i + j; // !!!
}
}
...It won't work. For some reason, however, the following will:
int aux;
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
// cin >> aux;
map(i, j) = i + j; // Still the same thing as before, logically
}
}
I do not understand. What is happening here?
edit: Sorry, forgot to include my debugging procedure.
Input:
3 5
1 2 3 4 5
1 2 3 4 5
The first line has the dimensions of the matrix. The second and third lines are values written into it; After pressing Enter at the end of the third line, however, the program crashes.
It doesn't even work with this input:
3 5
1
2
3
4
5
1
2
3
4
5
It crashes right after the second 5, again.

Your indices appear the wrong way around:
Type& operator() (int i, int j) {
return mat[j * columns + i];
};
Here, i is clearly the column and j is the row. However, in your loops the arguments appear in the opposite order:
for (int i = 0; i < lanes; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
map(i, j) = ...; // row then column
}
}
Also, the destructor should be using delete[] and not delete.
