Checking Strings With A For/While Loop?

Question

I have 3 arrays with 11 slots each. I will eventually be placing Strings into each array slot for the final product of this project. As of right now to locate and identify particular slots i have assigned each of the 33 slots a number, 1-33. I would like to be able to run a for loop to identify the slot by the number but the problem is that they are strings and need to stay that way. Any Ideas?

String[][] a = new String[3][11];

int slot = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < a.length(); i++) {
for(int j = 0; j < a[i].length(); j++) {
// code...
slot++;
}
}

You can make the String arrays, the 'slots' are accessed by a number.
Like having 33 garages, they hold cars, but each garage is numbered.

So make either 3 String arrays, or like the person above, a 3d array, 3 down, 11 across.

Inside they hold String is all.  An array can hold whatever type you say.
Accessing them is through the number and almost always a for loop.
It should go from 0-32, which is 33, remember that.
