instantiate 2d array in java code example

Example 1: java two dimensional arrays

int[][] multiples = new int[4][2];     // 2D integer array with 4 rows 
                                          and 2 columns
String[][] cities = new String[3][3];  // 2D String array with 3 rows 
                                          and 3 columns

Example 2: How to create a 2d array in java

int[][] arr = new int[m][n];

Example 3: Java 2d array initialization

class TwoDimensionalArray {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String[][] salutation = {
            {"Mr. ", "Mrs. ", "Ms. "},
            {"Kumar"}
        };

        // Mr. Kumar
        System.out.println(salutation[0][0] + salutation[1][0]);

        // Mrs. Kumar
        System.out.println(salutation[0][1] + salutation[1][0]);
    }
}

The output from this program is:

Mr. Kumar
Mrs. Kumar
