Here is an implementation of a 3D array class in ruby, in this case the default value is 0

class Array3
 def initialize
   @store = [[[]]]
 end

 def [](a,b,c)
  if @store[a]==nil ||
    @store[a][b]==nil ||
    @store[a][b][c]==nil
   return 0
  else
   return @store[a][b][c]
  end
 end

 def []=(a,b,c,x)
  @store[a] = [[]] if @store[a]==nil
  @store[a][b] = [] if @store[a][b]==nil
  @store[a][b][c] = x
 end
end


array = Array3.new
array[1,2,3] = 4
puts array[1,2,3] # => 4
puts array[1,1,1] # => 0
