public class ThreeDimMap
extends TableMap

A trivial extension of the TableMap to support threedimensional data storage. This class uses its parent 2D dimensional storage to store the third dimension in another map. Note for four, five, six, ... dimensional datastructures, this class can be extended once more. Additionally a n dimensional storage facility could be created by creating a recursive subclass of Map that uses a list of keys.
