java - how to return one row of an [n][3] array? -

i want return one,two or more rows of [n][3] array. example, array

{     {1,11,5},     {2,6,7},     {3,13,9},     {12,7,16},     {14,3,25},     {19,18,22},     {23,13,29},     {24,4,28} } 

i want return {1,11,5} or {2,6,7},{19,18,22},{24,4,28} .how can this?

public static int[][] horizontal_view(int first, int end) {     if (first == end)         return * ;  //i want return here 2 or more row of [8][3] array      int mid = (first + end) / 2;     int[][] x = horizontal_view(first, mid);     int[][] y = horizontal_view(mid + 1, end);     return merge(x, y); } 

if won't modify array, can state:

int[] row = array[1]; 

in case modify row, , don't want modifications visible in array, can clone array:

int[] rowclone = (int[]) array[1].clone();
