Thank you for the response apmcd47. I was beginning to wonder if anyone would reply. However, I'm not trying to make a 3D array. Either that or I have my terminology wrong. What I'm trying to achieve is a 1D array that holds references to 2D arrays and be able to call them.

I believe I've already got them initialized with the code already mentioned:
Code:
int (*side_one[MATRIX][MATRIX])[MATRIX] = { { white_l1, white_l2, white_l3 }, { white_m1, white_m2, white_m3 }, { white_r1, white_r2, white_r3 } };

Which was in this post that was mentioned to. Perhaps Corona688 provide me with a 3D array in that post, but I though (*side[][])[] was different than (*side[][][]), no?

If you know a better way to call lists of two-dimensional arrays I would be more than happy to learn this. However, I'm afraid you may have confused this post with a 3D array instead.

Either way, thank you for the reply!

EDIT: Also curious why you would not recommend C for arrays of 3D or larger? I understand that C supports up to 10 dimensions of arrays, which is more than any other language I know. Perhaps you were making this recommendation due to easy of use? If so, I'm not sure that a higher level language would be good for the rest of my code, but if you have suggestions I would be open to hear which ones.

glgenvertexarrays

GLGENVERTEXARRAYS(3G)						    OpenGL 3.3						     GLGENVERTEXARRAYS(3G)

NAME

       glGenVertexArrays - generate vertex array object names

C SPECIFICATION

       void glGenVertexArrays(GLsizei n, GLuint *arrays);

PARAMETERS

       n
	   Specifies the number of vertex array object names to generate.

       arrays
	   Specifies an array in which the generated vertex array object names are stored.

DESCRIPTION

       glGenVertexArrays returns n vertex array object names in arrays. There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers;
       however, it is guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately before the call to glGenVertexArrays.

       Vertex array object names returned by a call to glGenVertexArrays are not returned by subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with
       glDeleteVertexArrays().

       The names returned in arrays are marked as used, for the purposes of glGenVertexArrays only, but they acquire state and type only when they
       are first bound.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.

SEE ALSO

       glBindVertexArray(), glDeleteVertexArrays()
