Two-Dimensional Arrays (Tabular Data)
This lesson covers using a two-dimensional array in Java, so you can work with tabular data. It's for anyone searching "Java 2D array usage."
Writing int[][] grid represents a "grid-like table" with rows and columns โ called a two-dimensional array. Access it with grid[row][col].
The example declares data with 2 rows and 3 columns as {{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6}}, and accesses an element using two stacked brackets, like grid[1][2]. Notice the enhanced for loop, for (int[] row : grid), pulling out each row at once.
A common early mistake is trying to display the array directly with println(). An array printed directly shows something like a memory address, so you need to use Arrays.toString() instead.
In real projects, this idea gets applied to things like a game board with coordinates, or spreadsheet-like data.
