You can, you can use something called a collection initializer with rectangular arrays! But you can't declare the array type as int and try and store strings (such as "Sum") in it too.

You could use the object type to store different data types in the same collection:

object[,] Columns = { { 1, 0, 2 }, { "Distinct", "Sum", "Distinct" } };
