Array Question from http://www.danchisholm.net,

int []a1; //compiles well,
int []a1,[]a2; //doesnot compile

Can anybody explain why? The reason given was " the brackets appearing before the identifier for array variable a2 are not associated with the type or the identifier. "..My question is if this is the case than why does
int []a1 compile, Is it equal to int[] a1;


Thanks for replying

int []a1,[]a2; // is illegal

int []a1,a2; // is legal, it's the same as:
int a1[],a2[]; // and also the same as:
int a1[]; int a2[];


int []a1,a2[]; // is legal, it's the same as:
int a1[]; int a2[][];
