    What do you want to do? What sort of input are you expecting on the command line (or are you asking how to describe such an array on a command-line?)

    Actually a ragged array is a two dimensional array in which the elements in the rows is not same.

    here is a sample input how it should be read
    43.6.9
    90
    45,1,21

    I take it that first line has a typo of some sort, as 43.9.6 is not a valid number, nor a list of valid numbers.

    But yes, I know (after I googled it) what a ragged array is. What I'm asking is what you actually want to know. And more importantly, what it has to do with command-line.
