## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
One way to think of a <dfn>multi-dimensional</dfn> array, is as an <em>array of arrays</em>. When you use brackets to access your array, the first set of brackets refers to the entries in the outer-most (the first level) array, and each additional pair of brackets refers to the next level of entries inside.
|
|
<strong>Example</strong>
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var arr = [
|
|
[1,2,3],
|
|
[4,5,6],
|
|
[7,8,9],
|
|
[[10,11,12], 13, 14]
|
|
];
|
|
arr[3]; // equals [[10,11,12], 13, 14]
|
|
arr[3][0]; // equals [10,11,12]
|
|
arr[3][0][1]; // equals 11
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<strong>Note</strong><br>There shouldn't be any spaces between the array name and the square brackets, like <code>array [0][0]</code> and even this <code>array [0] [0]</code> is not allowed. Although JavaScript is able to process this correctly, this may confuse other programmers reading your code.

|
## Tests
|
|
<section id='tests'>
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
tests:
|
|
- text: <code>myData</code> should be equal to <code>8</code>.
|
|
testString: assert(myData === 8);
|
|
- text: You should be using bracket notation to read the correct value from <code>myArray</code>.
|
|
testString: assert(/myData=myArray\[2\]\[1\]/.test(code.replace(/\s/g, '')));
|
|
|
|
```

## Challenge Seed
|
|
<section id='challengeSeed'>
|
|
|
|
<div id='js-seed'>
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// Setup
|
|
var myArray = [[1,2,3], [4,5,6], [7,8,9], [[10,11,12], 13, 14]];
|
|
|
|
// Only change code below this line.
|
|
var myData = myArray[0][0];
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### After Test
|
|
<div id='js-teardown'>
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
if(typeof myArray !== "undefined"){(function(){return "myData: " + myData + " myArray: " + JSON.stringify(myArray);})();}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
</section>
|
|
|
|
## Solution
|
|
<section id='solution'>
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var myArray = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6], [7,8,9], [[10,11,12], 13, 14]];
|
|
var myData = myArray[2][1];
