@StevanMilic in theory you can write unicode by using \uUNICODE_NR however there are more factors at play here such as encoding. I also don't know what additional steps are needed on Windows. You can start by looking at this question on SE

So from a beginners perspective it simplifies things. If your goal is to reduce overhead or learn how to use arrays then by all means go ahead and use arrays to your hearts content. | |
| Apr 23, 2018 at 10:10 | comment | added | Vogel612 | I'm not sure why you suggest using vectors instead of arrays for a fixed-size collection. Could you please elaborate? | |
| Apr 23, 2018 at 9:31 | comment | added | yuri | @StevanMilic You could maybe spruce it up visually by using certain characters. | |
| Apr 23, 2018 at 9:24 | comment | added | Stevan Milic | I appreciate your answer, Yuri. I will update my code as soon as I can. For the UI, I wanted the terminal window to be more complex and interesting than just outputting "*" and "-". The solution could be maybe to output a symbol, or a box, or something like that. Thank you again for your answer, it really helped. | |
