Question

I want to create an multidimensional array in Java, like the PHP one shown below. I want to create an exact same array. Is it possible?

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [name] => sagar
            [company] => Visa
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [name] => shloka
            [company] => Doctor
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [name] => sanket
            [company] => zon
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [name] => kamlesh
            [company] => nsc
        )

    [4] => Array
        (
            [name] => siddhi
            [company] => KES
        )

    [5] => Array
        (
            [name] => sanket
            [company] => zon
        )

    [6] => Array
        (
            [name] => bunty
            [company] => India Bull
        )

    [7] => Array
        (
            [name] => siddhi
            [company] => KES
        )

)

In your case, you need an array of maps.

Something like:

List<Map<String, String>> list = new ArrayList<Map<String, String>>();
// 0
Map<String, String> tmp = new HashMap<String, String>();
tmp.put("name", "sagar");
tmp.put("company", "Visa");
list.add(tmp);
// 1
tmp = new HashMap<String, String>();
tmp.put("name", "shloka");
tmp.put("company", "Doctor");
list.add(tmp);
// so on, so forth...
