We can also define $indexed2Dhash[$x][$y]{$z} which should be thought of as a hash labelled by two-dimensional indices
$hashof2Darray{$x}[$y][$z] should be thought of as a hash whose value is a 2D array
One can freely use such data structures as long as you use "full" number of indices
Issues that require understanding of implementation occur when you need to manipulate structure "as a whole" with less than full number of indices
