Confused Java syntax

I am trying to convert the following code (from Wikipedia ) from Java to JavaScript:

/*
 * 3 June 2003, [[:en:User:Cyp]]:
 *     Maze, generated by my algorithm
 * 24 October 2006, [[:en:User:quin]]:

 * 25 January 2009, [[:en:User:DebateG]]:
 *     Source edited again for clarity and reusability
 * 1 June 2009, [[:en:User:Nandhp]]:
 *     Source edited to produce SVG file when run from the command-line
 *
 * This program was originally written by [[:en:User:Cyp]], who
 * attached it to the image description page for an image generated by
 * it on en.wikipedia. The image was licensed under CC-BY-SA-3.0/GFDL.

 else System.out.format("    <line x1=\"%d\" y1=\"%d\""
          + " x2=\"%d\" y2=\"%d\" />\n", x1, y1, x2, y2);
    }
}

In any case, I got over pretty quickly when I worked a little, which I just don’t understand:

 /* Remember the surrounding squares, as we will */
 for (var d = 0; d < 4; ++d) {
     if ((maze[][d][][d] & Constants.QUEUED) != 0) {
  /* want to connect them to the maze. */              
  todo[todonum++] = ((x + dx[d]) << Constants.QUEUED) | (y + dy[d]);
  maze[][d][][d] &= ~Constants.QUEUED;
     }
 }

What I am not getting is that the four bracket parameters follow the “labyrinth” parameter instead of the two, since the “labyrinth” is a two-dimensional array, not a four-dimensional array.

I am sure there is a good reason for this. The problem is that I just do not understand.

Thank!
