# AddVariables(K1[], K2[]) Method

Create an 2-dimensional map of variables. This function returns a builder that generates variables according to a specification. The specification can be modified. In order to actually create the variables, you have to call the returned builder's ToMap() function.
C#

    // Create a multi-dimensional array of binary columns
    Optimizer.Maps.HashMap2<K1 ,K2,Optimizer.Objects.Variable> x = prob.AddVariables(COLL_PASS)
                                       .WithType(Optimizer.Objects.ColumnType.Binary)
                                       .ToMap();

See [!:Optimizer.VariableBuilder.VariableMap2Builder] for details of how to modify the specification in the builder.
