java define 2 dimensional array directly with values code example

Example 1: two dimensional array in java example program

class MultidimensionalArray {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // create a 2d array
        int[][] a = {
            {1, -2, 3}, 
            {-4, -5, 6, 9}, 
            {7}, 
        };
      
        // first for...each loop access the individual array
        // inside the 2d array
        for (int[] innerArray: a) {
            // second for...each loop access each element inside the row
            for(int data: innerArray) {
                System.out.println(data);
            }
        }
    }
}

Example 2: two dimensional array in java example program

int[][] a = new int[3][4];
