WHAT IS AN ARRAY OBJECT?
- Array is a set of data with the same name and the
same type.
- The element of array is recognized by index of the
array.
- The index of array is usually started from the zero
number (0) enclosed in the square bracket ([ ]).
- Elements stored in sequence of index.
- Array is one of the best way to store large of data.
- To use an array you must first declare the array
variable to reference the array and specify the type
of the array variable.

ARRAY OBJECT
Declaration
| To declare an array, you have to think of:
y What is the type of data to be stored (Data Type)
y Name of the array
y Array Size (Elements to be stored in the array)
| Keyword new is needed since array is a kind of
Object Variable:
| Syntax:
DataTye[] ArrayName[] = new DataTye[Size];
DataTye ArrayName[]= new DataTye[Size];

Declaration (Cont.)
| Example Declare an array to store 5 elements of
integer numbers.
int intNum[ ] = new int[5]; or
int[ ] intNum = new int[5];
| Example Declare an array to store 5 elements of
floating point number.
double dblNum[ ] = new double[5]; or
double[ ] dblNum = new double[5];

| Example Declare an array to store 25 characters.
char ch[ ] = new char[25]; or
char[ ] ch = new char[55];
| Example Declare an array of String to store 4 names
characters.
String name[ ] = new char[4]; or
String[ ] name = new char[4];

Initializing an Array
| This is the way that you can set values to an array as
soon as the array declared.
| You can initialize array in two ways.
| Example with the five integer numbers:

int [ ] intNum= {11, 2, 23, 84, 55}
Or You can write
int [ ] intNum= new int [5];
intNum[0]=11;
intNum[1]=2;
intNum[2]=23;
intNum[3]=84;
intNum[4]=55;
intNum
11 2 23 84 55
intNum[0] intNum[1] intNum[2] intNum[3] intNum[4]
ARRAY OBJECT
Accessing elements in an Array
| To work with the individual element of an array such
as
y Setting value
y Edit Value
y Delete the element
y Retrieving value
| Every thing depends on index of the array.
| Example you have a array of String with five people as
below:
String[] people = new String[5];

ARRAY OBJECT
Two Dimension Array
|Two dimension arrays are often used to
represent tables of values consisting of
information arranged in rows and columns.
|To identify a particular table element, we must
specify two subscripts.
y The first identifies the element's row
y and the second identifies the element's column.

Two Dimension Array
| Example you want to declare an array to store integer
numbers of 3 rows and five column. So you can do as
below:
int[][] num=new int[3][5];
| Then, you may want to set the value of 45 to third
element of the array you can write code as below:
num [0][2] = 45;

Initializing Two Dimension Array
| To initialize a two dimension array, you use the brace
{ } separate each line/row of the elements.
| See the example below. It initializes the 15 elements
of floating point with 3 rows and 5 column.
float[ ][ ] num={{12.3,3.24,45,9.58,23.5},
{12.5,30,45.9,9.5,25.5}, {34,3.5,45.7,10,50.5}}
Then if you want to display the number of 45.9 you write:
System.out.println(num[1][2]
