let mut m = Model::default();
// Create a 3×4 matrix
let matrix = m.ints_2d(3, 4, 1, 10);
// Access element at dynamic indices
let r = m.int(0, 2);
let c = m.int(0, 3);
let v = m.int(1, 10);
m.element_2d(&matrix, r, c, v);
// Apply table constraint to all rows
let patterns = vec![
vec![Val::int(1), Val::int(2), Val::int(3), Val::int(4)],
vec![Val::int(5), Val::int(6), Val::int(7), Val::int(8)],
];
m.table_2d(&matrix, patterns);
// Solve
if let Ok(solution) = m.solve() {
println!("Solution found!");
}
}
```
