Getting the array length of a 2D array in Java

by

Consider

public static void main(String[] args) {

    int[][] foo = new int[][] {
        new int[] { 1, 2, 3 },
        new int[] { 1, 2, 3, 4},
    };

    System.out.println(foo.length); //2
    System.out.println(foo[0].length); //3
    System.out.println(foo[1].length); //4
}

Column lengths differ per row. If you’re backing some data by a fixed size 2D array, then provide getters to the fixed values in a wrapper class.
