Java Multi-Dimensional Arrays

Multi dimensional arrays are arrays of arrays. To declare a multi dimensional array variable, specify each additional index using another set of square brackets. An example is given below for two dimensional array:

int sample[][] = new int[3][3];

We can specify memory for first dimension first, and we can assign memory for second dimension later as given below:

int sample[][] = new int[3][];
int sample[0] = new int[2];
int sample[1] = new int[2];
int sample[2] = new int[2];

The advantage of assigning memory for second dimension is your second dimension can be of any lengths, cannot be fixed length.
