Jagged array

In computer science, a jagged array, also known as a ragged array, is an array of arrays of which the member arrays can be of different sizes, producing rows of jagged edges when visualized as output. In contrast, C-styled arrays are always rectangular. Arrays of arrays in languages such as Java, PHP, Python (multidimensional lists), Ruby, C#.Net, Visual Basic.NET, Perl, JavaScript, Objective-C, Swift, and Atlas Autocode are implemented as Iliffe vectors.
