Amazing on horse combat. There's gameplay to shove up your ass Memo.
Right there :D
The dimensions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 still exist, but fractional dimensions also exist.
What was that about dimensions not being integers then?
We are talking about dimensions of the object itself :D
I'll show you a simple fractal :D
a straight line with length and dimension of 1 :D

I can't draw a fractal on this forum :D

I was thinking the same, but do you mean in size or the actual dimension, in which case they are only integers? For example, the height of a block does't have to be an integer, but the dimension itself has to be - in this case - 1?

You can't.
Real life isn't defined by mathematics, mathematics can be used to represent real life though.
Anyway, a coastline is the example given on that link below. Fractals are also used in games to represent trees, terrain, fire and plenty of other things.
Anyway, we have done DirectX9, OpenGL 1.4, and Sony Net Yaroze.
We've also done a little Java programming, C and C++.
Lots of Maths too and some Dynamics (Newton's Laws of motion and that sort of stuff).
I think from next year the Yaroze modules are being replaced by PS2 Linux.
I'm intrigued by your array question though.
All arrays are 1d and linear. The indexing of that array can be made to "appear" to have mor than one dimension, but that is simply a high level language contruct to make things mentally easier for the programmer.
So, I'm still not sure what you meant by 2.5D arrays. I'm old and stuck in my ways, an array to me is a computer langauge contstruct for holding a fixed amount of data in memory. I've never heard of any mathematical theory regarding something called an array.
