Extract data out of a seemingly complex structure

Curious

I define a variable ("result") as object. Its value is set by
following code:

object result = splusObject.GetType().InvokeMember("ReturnValue",
System.Reflection.BindingFlags.GetProperty, null, splusObject, null);

Then both bad news and good news. Bad is that "result" seems to be a
matrix. In my debugger, it is:

Dimensions:[1..2, 1..2]}
[1, 1] 112

Good news is that it contains the correct value I want, "112".

I've tried to extract "112" out of result, but to no avail.

Any advice on how to extract "112" out of this complex structure of
result? Thanks!
 
Judging from the debugger output, 'result' is a jagged array. If you are
sure that the result is always a jagged array the following code will let
you extract the value at [1, 1]. Make sure there are enough elements in the
matrix though, in order to avoid receiving a IndexOutOfRangeException.

int[,] b = (int[,])result;
int resultValue = b[1, 1];
