here,

int is the keyword used

arr is used to declare the name of array

along with we need to declare maximum number of rows and columns we need

In row major, all the rows are stored into the memory continuously

firstly, the 1st row of array is completely stored into the memory, then we move on the 2nd row and so on till the last row.

In column major, all the columns are stored into the memory continuously

firstly, the 1st column of array is completely stored into the memory, then we move on the 2nd column and so on till the last column.
