That isn't a two-dimensional array, it's a one-dimensional array with
some curly braces in the element values. Keep in mind that the number
of []s you write in the DECLARE is just decoration --- it's not enforced.
What's determining the actual array shape in this example is the
subscripts you write in the assignments.
