Does this work

for (auto int i = 0 ; i < 640 ; i++)
   for (auto int j = 0 ; j < 480 ; j++)
      scrn[i][j] = 0;

What I know about "auto" is that once you are out of scope (for every new
"i" value) "j" will be destroyed then recreated.  But again, how efficent
this is, I have my doubts.  But I'm sure it works. (Unless anyone can
prove me wrong because I'm to lazy to compile a test program for this
right now) :P
