In this simple programm I have an array
Qt Code:
  1. my_array = [['00','01','02'],
  2. ['10','11','12'],
  3. ['20','21','22']]
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
which will be given to the constructor of the model.
Qt Code:
  1. tablemodel = MyTableModel(my_array, self)
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

At this stage I simply want to display my model. Later on I will add the necessary methods where I can add items to the model. Or do I need these methods already for the sorting/filtering?

As for "emmiting signals" I am not sure what you are getting at. I know the idea behind the signal/slot thing, but I don't see where I need it in my model or view.
