 ==== Multidimensional tables ====
-<code>
+As mentioned before, there is no special constructor for definition of multidimensional tables, a table entry can contain another table. In what follows we have a closer look to manipulations with multidimensional tables.  Consider a multidimensional table which is extensionally defined as follows:
+<code>
 def a := [[1,0,0], [0,1,0], [0,0,1]];
 >>[[1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]]
@@ Line 104: / Line 111: @@
 def aux[3] {0};
 def b[3] { i := i + 1; aux := [0,0,0]; aux[i] :=1; aux};
+>>[[1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]]
+>b[1][2]
+>>0
 </code>
+Finally, we can create a function for nXn tables as follows:
+<code>
+def makeMatrix(n) { def col[n] {0}; def m[n] { [@col]}};
+def c := makeMatrix(3);
+>>[[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]]
+>(c[1])[2] := 3;
+>>3
+>c
+>>[[1, 3, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]]
+>c[2] := [1,2,3]
+>>[1, 2, 3]
+>c
+>>[[1, 3, 0], [1, 2, 3], [0, 0, 1]]
+</code>
