What is input data array format for contour movement?

I am working on project requiring control 3-axis contour movement. After I configured buffer, I need to download data of contour. My question is what is the format of contour data? 3D array or 1D array?
I checked the example of contoure control, it seems that it is 1D array. Is it in format of(x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2....)?
If it is 3D array, Is it {{x1,y1,z1},{x2,y2,z2}...}?
I configured vector space to 3D.

Thanks

The input is a 1D array. For a 3D contour with N points, there will be 3N values in the array with the format (x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2...).
