Chapter 7.5, Problem 34SCP

Explanation of Solution

Method to copy the second column to the fifth column:

//Definition of class Test

public class Test {

    //Definition of main class

    public static void main(String[] args)

    {

        //Create an string array

int[][] matrix = new int[][] {{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8},{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8},

        {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8},{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8},

        {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8},{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}};

        //Printing the elements in the array

System.out.println("Printing the elements in the array:");

        //Outer loop to traverse the row

        for(int i = 0; i<matrix.length; i++)

        {

            //Inter loop to traverse the column

            for(int j = 0; j<matrix[i].length; j++)

            {

                System.out.print(matrix[i][j]);

            }

            System.out.println();

        }
