Hi Dave,

Basically I just put everything there into a module


module array_2d_sum;

  logic [7:0] m [2][2] = '{ '{5, 10}, '{15, 20} };
  int y;

  y = m.sum with (item.sum with (item)); // y becomes 50 => 5+10+15+20

  initial begin
    $display("m is %p", m);
  end

endmodule

The compilation error in QuestaSim is Error: vlog-13069, pointing to this line y = m.sum with (item.sum with (item)); near “=”: syntax error, unexpected ‘=’.
The same line has another error message: vlog-13205, Syntax error found in the scope following ‘y’. Is there a missing ‘::’?
