Ates,
 
In Java, arrays don't necessarily have to be "orthogonal" if that's an apt 
description.
 
For example, take this following code fragment;
 
 
        // an array of array references        String [][] arrays;        // 
assign memory to hold 3 references to 3 arrays of arrays
        arrays = new String[3][];        // assign 3 different length arrays to 
each of the 3 array of array references        arrays[0] = new String[3];       
 arrays[1] = new String[4];        arrays[2] = new String[2];        int i = 0; 
       for(String[] element : arrays){            System.out.println("arrays["+ 
i++ +"] length : "+element.length);        }
 
You can see the length of each of the String [] arrays at each of the indexes 
in the first dimension aren't constrained to be the same length.
