c++ - How to add user input into a 2D array -

i'm trying get user input, stored in array (eightbit[]), , add 2d array (board). user supposed enter 8 numbers, example: byte 1: 1 byte 2: 2 etc... , output supposed like:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 

however output get:

8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 

any idea why repeating last numbered entered? part of code below, appreciated.

cout << "enter pattern of 8 bits:" << endl;             for(i = 0; < 8; i++){                 cout << "byte " << i+1 << ": ";                 cin >> eightbit[i];             }  int board[2][4];              for(i = 0; i<8; i++){                 for(int j=0; j<2; j++){                 for(int k=0; k<4; k++) {                     board[j][k] = eightbit[i];                  }             }              for(int j=0; j<2; j++)             {                 for(int k=0; k<4; k++)                  {                     cout << board[j][k]  << "  ";                 }     cout << endl; } 

that's because of outer loop i overwriting every element in 2d array.

a solution drop outer loop entirely, so:

int = 0;     for(int j=0; j<2; j++) {         for(int k=0; k<4; k++) {             board[j][k] = eightbit[i++];         }     } 

also have bracket mismatch in code snippet.
