Vb Glossary 1.0
Arrays allow you to refer to a series of variables by the same name and to use a number (an index) to tell them apart. This helps you create smaller and simpler code in many situations, because you can set up loops that deal efficiently with any number of cases by using the index number. Arrays have both upper and lower bounds, and the elements of the array are contiguous within those bounds. Because Visual Basic allocates space for each index number, avoid declaring an array larger than necessary.
A set of sequentially indexed elements having the same intrinsic data type. Each element of an array has a unique identifying index number. Changes made to one element of an array don't affect the other elements.

Noman's Java(TM) Glossary
A collection of data items, all of the same type, in which each item's position is uniquely designated by an integer. There are two ways to create arrays in Java. The first uses new, and specifies how large the array should be:

byte octet_buffer[] = new byte[1024];
Button buttons[] = new Button[10];


The second way to create an array is with an initializer, which looks just like it does in C:

int lookup_table[] = {1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128};

Java arrays are implemented as classes; they just aren't used as classes in the traditional sense of calling methods, and so on. Even though you won't find a class called Array in the Java API documentation, you can rest assured that under Java's hood there is an array class that is at least vaguely similar to the Vector class.
Java also supports multidimensional arrays. These are implemented as arrays-of-arrays, as they are in C. You specify a variable as a multidimensional array type simply by appending the appropriate number of [] pairs after it. You allocate a multidimensional array with new by specifying the appropriate number of elements (between square brackets) for each dimension. For example:
byte TwoDimArray[][] = new byte[256][16];

Internet Glossary
In programming, a series of objects all of which are the same size and type. Each object in an array is called an array element. For example, you could have an array of integers or an array of characters or an array of anything that has a defined data type. The important characteristics of an array are:

· Each element has the same data type (although they may have different values).

· The entire array is stored contiguously in memory (that is, there are no gaps between elements).

Arrays can have more than one dimension. A one-dimensional array is called a vector; a two-dimensional array is called a matrix.

Array Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries
Wikipedia English - The Free Encyclopedia
An array is a systematic arrangement of objects, usually in rows and columns. Specifically, it may refer to:

In computer science
Generally, a collection of data items that can be selected by indices computed at run-time, including:
  • Array data structure, an arrangement of items at equally spaced addresses in computer memory
  • Array data type, used in a programming language to specify a variable that can be indexed
  • Associative array, an abstract data structure model that generalizes arrays to arbitrary indices
