Subject: Re: what is an array?

An array is a representation of information in a row and column
arrangement.  When discussing multiplication of numbers--the array
forms a row and column pattern to represent the factors of a number. 

Students seem to acquire understanding of a concept quicker with an
example rather than a formal definitiion; however, providing the
definition with examples is effective teaching.
