Re: Quotes from the Chief Engineer and I

How members of an array are stored and accessed is a function of the programming language. It is not something one should worry or argue about since the language will reference and de-reference everything for you. "Row" and "Column" mean nothing to the compiler. Notation has nothing to do with the physical location since memory is laid out so one accesses word-sized elements in sequence. In C and C++ matrices and arrays are really done with pointer arithmetic - google it.
