Java2D Array rows

Question

I would like to know if it is possible to get max length of a row in java 2D array

for example:

my Array : {{1,2,3,4},{1,2,3,4,5},{1,2,3}};

So I have array that has 3 columns (I can get it with Array.length) and max lenght of a row is 5. How would I get this number

You need to iterate through all the rows to find the maximum length:

int max = 0; 
for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
    if (myArray[i].length > max) {
        max = myArray[i].length;
    }
}
return max;
