Program Plan Intro

Three dimensional arrays:

C++ allows the array to have multiple dimensions; it does not restrict the number of dimensions.

• The multiple sets of data are modeled in one or more dimensions.

Consider the following example which shows the array with three dimensions:

// Declare three-dimensional array

double sets[2] [4] [6];

• In the above code, the array is created with three dimensions as two sets of four rows and each row contains six elements in it.

The diagrammatic representation for the above code snippet is as follows:

• Arrays with more than two dimensions are too complex to view the dimension but it helps in programming problems.

Thus, the C++ program allows programmers to create arrays with three or more dimensions.
