How to let each array index have a struct instance

I have a 2-dimensional 5x5 array in Swift. I am trying to have each array item to present a struct that has properties like cost and heuristics. for example, the grid[0][0] item should have cost and heuristics values.

Swift implementation: 

struct Spot {
    var cost: Int  // cost
    var heu: Int  // heuristics
}

var grid = [[Int]]

In Javascript I used to do it as: 

function Spot() {
  this.cost = 0;
  this.heu = 0;
}

//This is what I'm looking for something equivalent in Swift
grid[0][0] = new Spot();

Sorry if this seems very basic, but I'm a beginner in Swift.

You need an array of Spot arrays [[Spot]], not an array of Int arrays [[Int]]. 

struct Spot {
    let cost: Int  // cost
    let heu: Int  // heuristics
}

var grid: [[Spot]] = .init(repeating: .init(repeating: .init(cost: 0, heu: 0), count: 5), count: 5)

grid[0][0] = .init(cost: 10, heu: 5)

print(grid)  // "[[Spot(cost: 10, heu: 5),...
print(grid[0][0].cost)   // 10
print(grid[0][0].heu)    // 5
