Utilizing multidimensional arrays
Multidimensional arrays allow you to store and organize data in a spreadsheet-like structure with multiple dimensions. You can have arrays with two or more dimensions, such as two-dimensional arrays, three-dimensional arrays, and so on. Here’s an example of how you can declare an array with multiple dimensions:
Dim arrayName(size1, size2, ...) As DataType
For example, to declare and initialize a two-dimensional array of integers with five rows and 10 columns, you can use the following code:
Dim myMatrix(5, 10) As Integer
Array elements in multidimensional arrays are accessed using their indices for each dimension. You can retrieve or assign values to array elements as follows:
Dim value As Integer = myMatrix(4, 9) myMatrix(4, 9) = 25
The previous code example accesses the element at the fourth row and tenth column. First, it retrieves the value, then assigns a new value to that cell of the multidimensional array.
