I am using a multi-dimensional array to store the total amount of product sold (products range 1 to 5) by a particular salesperson (1 to 4 salespersons).
T arranged the salesPersons in rows 1 to 4, and Product IDs in columns 1 to 5.
Only thing I can not do is iterate exclusively through the rows to get the total of each product ie column 1: sum of rows 1 to 4= Total product 1, column 2: sum of rows 1 to 4= product2 Total etc.
See test salesTest application code followed by the class Sales:
/*

*/
package salestest;
import SalesLibary.Sales;
public class SalesTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// pass monthly stats to 4r(salespesons) * c5(products 1 to 5) using initialization method
int monthlySales [][]= {{13, 23, 45, 67, 56},
{43, 65, 76, 89, 90},
{43, 45, 76, 98, 90},
{34, 56, 76, 43, 87}};
//pass default values to constructor when creating object of class
Sales companySales = new Sales("Monneys Inc.", monthlySales);
companySales.displayMessage();
companySales.displaySales();
}//end main
}//end SalesTest class

In order to loop over a 2D array, we first go through each row, and then again we go through each column in every row. That's why we need two loops, nested in each other. Anytime, if you want to come out of the nested loop, you can use the break statement.
Traversing in a 2D array in python can be done by using a for loop. We can iterate through the outer array first and then at each element of the outer array, we have another array which is our inner array containing the elements. So for each inner array, we run a loop to traverse its elements.
Now let's jump into nested for loops as a method for iterating through 2D arrays. A nested for loop is one for loop inside another. Take a look below to see what this means. The first for loop loops through each row of the 2D array one by one.
To iterate over a single row k
in a two-dimensional array:
for (int j = 0; j < multiarray[k].length; j++)
multiarray[k][j]; // do something
And to iterate over a single column k
in a two-dimensional array:
for (int i = 0; i < multiarray.length; i++)
multiarray[i][k]; // do something
