 Ah i see. I don't remember this being covered in any of the books i was reading, and having to go through several loops not only looks ugly; but invites bugs.
 So if i had a 3-dimentional array, i'd assume i'd have to "= new xyz[][][](a,b,c)?" and so on and so forth?
 Then, the question comes up next. If i actually pass a parameter to a class's constructor, would it be....
class xyz{
    this(x,y,z){} //three dimentional points
}
//make two dimentional array taking a 3-dimentional location
 abc = new xyz[][](left, right)(x,y,z);   //is this right??
