What is a 2D array

A 2D array is an array of arrays.

Why use 2D arrays?

1D array of people

{
"Patrick Mahomes"
"Mr. Mortensen"
"Taylor Swift"
"Margot Robbie"
}

2D array of men and women

{
{ "Patrick Mahomes", "Mr. Mortensen"} ,
{"Taylor Swift", "Margot Robbie"}
}

Declaring a 2D Array

Very similar to declaring a 1D array.

DataType[] name // 1D array
DataType[][] name // 2D array

int[][] intArray; //primitive and a 2D Array
String[][] stringArray; //object and a 2D Array

Initalizing a 2D Array

public class TwoDArrayExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int rows = 3;
        int cols = 4;
        
        // Declare and initialize a 2D array
        int[][] myArray = {
            {1, 2, 3, 4},
            {5, 6, 7, 8},
            {9, 10, 11, 12}
        };
        
        // Access and print elements
        for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
                System.out.print(myArray[i][j] + " ");
            }
            System.out.println();
        }
    }

Traversing

Traversing is known to acsess each element in a array also known as itteration, in the case of 2D Arrays we will acsess elements in the 2D array, but we will need to use specfiic methods of nested for loops, and enhanced for loops.

public class ArrayTraversalExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Array that is created in order to be traversed/iterate through
        int[] numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

        // Traverse the array and print each element
        // How this works: 1. First it sets i to 0 in order to keep track of the index by using a for loop
        // Then it checks if the number is greater index if so then it will continue
        // uses i++ to continue to go through the indicies 
        // prints outs the number if greater than index
        for (int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
            System.out.println("Element at index " + i + " is: " + numbers[i]);
        }
    }
}
ArrayTraversalExample.main(null)

Element at index 0 is: 1
Element at index 1 is: 2
Element at index 2 is: 3
Element at index 3 is: 4
Element at index 4 is: 5

Nested For Loop

A nested for loop is a type of loop that contains an inner loop and outer loop, allowing to create a two dimensional piece that will now allow us to traverse through 2D Arrays.

public class NestedLoops {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int outer = 1; outer < 5; outer++) {
            for (int inner = 1; inner < 3; inner++) {
                System.out.print(inner + " ");
            }

        }
    }

        for (String fruit : fruits) {
            System.out.println(fruit);

Row Major Order Vs Column Major Order

PopCorn Hacks
Whats the difference between row major order and column major order
- Row-Major Order:
  - elements are stored and accessed sequentially by rows
  - elements of a row are stored adjacent to each other in memory in a 2D Array
  - Traversal typically goes through the rows first and then moves to the next column
- Column-Major Order:
  - elements are stored and accessed sequentially by columns
  - elements of a column are stored adjacent to each other in memory in a 2D Array
  - Traversal typically goes through the columns first and then moves to the next row

Image Representation with 2D Arrays

Digital images are essentially a collection of small, discrete elements called pixels. Pixels are organized in a 2D grid, where each pixel represents a single point of color or intensity. Each element (pixel) in the 2D array corresponds to one pixel in the image. In a color image, each pixel contains three color components: Red, Green, and Blue (RGB), while in grayscale images, each pixel has a single intensity value.

Traversing and Processing an Image

Traversing an image’s 2D array involves systematically visiting every pixel in the image grid. This process often uses nested loops, with the outer loop iterating over the rows and the inner loop iterating over the columns. By traversing the array, you gain access to each pixel’s information, such as color values or intensity. This structured access is fundamental for various image processing tasks.

Grayscale Conversion with Images

Grayscale conversion is a fundamental image processing operation. When converting an image to grayscale, you effectively remove color information and retain only the pixel intensity. This is typically done by calculating the average intensity from the RGB components of each pixel. The result is a grayscale image where variations in pixel intensity represent the image’s features and details. This operation can serve as a starting point for more complex image processing techniques.
