Declaring and initializing multi-dimensional arrays of various dimensions
With a firm, conceptual grasp of multi-dimensional arrays, we can now explore the C syntax for declaring them. As we move from two to more dimensions, we will continue to use array1D, array2D, array3D, and array4D to match the previous section. As each array is declared, pay particular attention to the order in which the array indices appear in each definition. In general, the highest-order dimension appears at the leftmost side and the lowest-order dimension (in our example, array1D) appears in the rightmost position.
Before we begin, we'll define some size constants, as follows:
enum {
size1D = 5,
size2D = 4,
size3D = 3,
size4D = 7
};
In each of our declarations, we could simply use literal numbers to specify each dimension's size. Instead, we'll use the size1D, size2D, size3D, and size4D constants, not just in this section...
