The Cayley-Dickson process is used in connection with square array representations of the Cayley-Dickson algebras. This involves an array operation on square arrays distinct from matrix multiplication. The arrays give a convenient representation of the octonion division algebra and a description of octonion multiplication. The connection between this description of pure octonion multiplication and seven dimensional real space using products related to the commutator and associator of the octonions is extended to the other Cayley-Dickson algebras and the appropriate real vector space.
