int[ ][ ] myArr = { {1, 2, 3}, {4}, {5, 6, 7} }; why are there only 2 [ ] in the array declaration?
multi dimentional arrays

1d array ... set of values
2d array ... set of 1d array
3d array ... set of 2d array

No. Dimensions do not concern "how many arrays" you have. Dimensions are about how many levels your array is nested within.
In {{1, 2, 3}, {4}, {5, 6, 7}},
arr[0] would refer to {1, 2, 3}
arr[1] would refer to {4}
arr[2] would refer to {5, 6, 7}
arr[0][0] would refer to 1, which is the first element in the first array within the multidimensional array. Similarly :
arr[0][1] would refer to 2
arr[1][0] would refer to 4
arr[2][1] would refer to 6
You would need three dimensions when you have:
{{1, 2, {3, 4}}, {5}, {6, 7}}
Note that {3, 4} is within {1, 2, {3, 4}}, and is represented by arr[0][2]. To access 4, for example, would be arr[0][2][1].

Because specifying two dimensions would be enough to identify each element in the array, as it is.
0
so if you had 4 arrays you would need 3 sets of brackets etc ?
0
the simple answer is it is a 2 dimensional array
if explained further,
[] means 1 dimension
[] [] means 2 dimensions
when we need to reference an element in a 2 dimensional array we use 2 indexes
e.g :-
int x=myarr[0][1] //x=2
think of 2 dimensional array as a table
× 0 1 2 - X
0 1 4 5
1 2 6
2 3 7
-Y
X- array numbers (1st array gets 0, 2nd array gets 1.. and so on)
Y- index of each array
