Convert a 2D array index into a 1D index

Viewed 74817

I have two arrays for a chess variant I am coding in java...I have a console version so far which represents the board as a 1D array (size is 32) but I am working on making a GUI for it and I want it to appear as a 4x8 grid, so I have a 2-dimensional array of JPanels...

Question is, is there any formula that can convert the array[i][j] index into array[i] given the fact its a 4x8 array?
