Here's a version in Ruby.

def matrix rows, cols
  the_vector = [0] * (rows * cols)
  calc_index = proc{|row,col| row*cols + col}
  proc{|row,col,*val|
    if val.empty?
      the_vector[ calc_index[row,col] ]
    else
      the_vector[ calc_index[row,col] ] = *val
    end
  }
end

mat = matrix( 4, 4 )
4.times{|row| 4.times{|col| mat[row,col, row*col]}}

4.times{|row|
  4.times{|col| printf "%2d", mat[row,col] }
  puts
}
