Hi Faheem.
You can use to put an array into other array. For example an array of days into an array of months into an array of years.I hope it helps

Answer 2

Even if they are slower to allocate. they are easier and faster to index, and use less memory.
I used them to make the "pascal triangle" thing. and In a game I am thinking of using them to store the individual inventory of a character group.

It all depends on your imagination, there is more than one way to solve a problem, the only difference is that some of them are easier than others.

Answer 4

C# 7 is being updated to include mutable tuples. Look up how to use those. Jagged arrays are ugly and seldom used.

Answer 5

my point of view is that it's not very useful. most of the time, using dictionaries or lists is much more intuitive. but I think that arrays are more lighter in memory and in some cases, depending on what you have to do, it could be very useful.
