Array
What you’ll Learn
● Single Dimensional Array
● Multi Dimensional Array
● Jagged Array
Array
● An object which contains elements of a similar data type.
● Array in Java is index-based.
● First Element of Array is stored 0 index.
Pros and cons of Array
Advantages
● Code Optimization
● Random access
Disadvantages
● Size Limit
● Can store a single type of primitives only.
1D Array
0 1 2 3 4
10 20 30 40 50
Array Length 5
Single dimension Array
Syntax:
dataType[] arr;
(or)
dataType []arr;
(or)
dataType arr[];
Instantiation of an Array in Java:
arrayRefVar = new datatype[size];
Example
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[] = new int[5];
arr[0] = 10;
arr[1] = 20;
arr[2] = 70;
arr[3] = 40;
arr[4] = 50;
for(int i = 0;i < a.length;i++)
System.out.println(a[i]);
}
}
Example
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int a[] = {33,3,4,5};
for(int i = 0;i < a.length;i++)
System.out.println(a[i]);
}
}
For Each Loop for Array
● Prints the array elements one by one.
● It holds an array element in a variable, then executes the body of the loop.
Syntax
for(data_type variable:array)
{
//body of the loop
}
Example
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int[] scores = new int[10];
scores = new int[3];
scores = new int[] {215, 234, 218, 189, 221, 290};
for(int score : scores)
{
System.out.print(score + " ");
}
}
Passing Array to Method
class Main{
static void arrmethod(int arr[]){
for(int i = 0;i < arr.length;i++)
System.out.println(arr[i]);
}
public static void main(String args[]){
int a[] = {33,3,4,5};
arrmethod(a);
}
}
Return Array From Method
class Subclass class Main{
{ public static void main(String args[]){
int[] arrmethod(int[] arr) int a[] = {1,22,33,44};
{ Subclass S1 = new Subclass();
return arr; int[] return_arr = S1.arrmethod(a);
} for(int i = 0; i < return_arr.length; i++){
} System.out.println(return_arr[i]);
}
}
}
Anonymous Array
public class Main{
static void AnonymousArr(int arr[]){
for(int i = 0;i < arr.length;i++)
System.out.println(arr[i]);
}
public static void main(String args[]){
AnonymousArr(new int[]{10,20,40,60});
}
}
Predict the Output
public class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[] = {50,60,70,80};
for(int i = 0;i <= arr.length;i++){
System.out.println(arr[i]);
}
}
}
Multidimensional Array
● Data is stored in row and column based index.
● Also known as matrix form.
Syntax
dataType[][] RefVar; (or) dataType [][]RefVar;
(or)
dataType RefVar[][]; (or) dataType []RefVar[];
Example:
int[][] arr = new int[3][3];
Multi Dimensional Array
0 1 2 3
0 10 20 30 40
1 50 60 70 80
2 90 100 110 120
Example
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[][] = {{1,2,3},{2,4,5},{4,4,5}};
for(int i = 0;i < 3;i++){
for(int j = 0;j < 3;j++){
System.out.print(arr[i][j]+" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}
Jagged Array
class Main{
public static void main(String[] args){
int arr[][] = new int[3][];
arr[0] = new int[3];
arr[1] = new int[4];
arr[2] = new int[2];
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++)
for(int j = 0; j < arr[i].length; j++)
arr[i][j] = count++;
for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
for (int j = 0; j < arr[i].length; j++){
System.out.print(arr[i][j]+" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}
Class Name of Array
An array is an object.For array object, a proxy class is created whose name
can be obtained by getClass() .getName() method on the object.
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4};
Class c = arr.getClass();
String name = c.getName();
System.out.println(name);
}
}
Copying Array
We can copy an array to another by the arraycopy() method of System class.
Syntax
public static void arraycopy(Object src, int srcPos,Object dest, int destPos, int length)
Predict the output
class Main{
public static void main(String[] args){
char[] copyFrom = { 'd', 'e', 'c', 'a', 'f', 'f', 'e',
'i', 'n', 'a', 't', 'e', 'd' };
char[] copyTo = new char[7];
System.arraycopy(copyFrom, 2, copyTo, 0, 7);
System.out.println(String.valueOf(copyTo));
}
}
Cloning an Array
● Java array implements the Cloneable interface.
● Clone of a single-dimensional array,it creates the deep copy of the Java array.It
means, it will copy the actual value
● Clone of a multidimensional array, it creates the shallow copy of the Java array
which means it copies the references.
Example
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4};
System.out.println("Printing original array:");
for(int i:arr)
System.out.println(i);
System.out.println("Printing clone of the array:");
int carr[] = arr.clone();
for(int i:carr)
System.out.println(i);
System.out.print("Are both equal? : ");
System.out.println(arr == carr);
}
}
Adding 2D Array
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int a[][] = {{1,3,4},{3,4,5}};
int b[][] = {{1,3,4},{3,4,5}};
int c[][] = new int[2][3];
for(int i = 0;i < 2;i++){
for(int j = 0;j < 3;j++){
c[i][j] = a[i][j] + b[i][j];
System.out.print(c[i][j] +" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}
Multiply 2D Array
public class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int a[][] = {{1,1,1},{2,2,2},{3,3,3}};
int b[][] = {{1,1,1},{2,2,2},{3,3,3}};
int c[][] = new int[3][3];
for(int i = 0;i < 3;i++){
for(int j = 0;j < 3;j++){
c[i][j] = 0;
for(int k = 0;k < 3;k++)
c[i][j] += a[i][k] * b[k][j];
System.out.print(c[i][j] +" ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}
Predict the Output
class Main
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
String[] computer = {"RAM","HDD","MOUSE"};
String[] parts = {computer[0],computer[2]};
System.out.print(parts[1]);
}
}
Predict the Output
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int arr[] = new int[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
{
arr[i] = i;
System.out.print(arr[i] + " ");
i++;
}
}
}
Predict the Output
class Main
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int arr[] = new int[] {0 , 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
int n = 6;
n = arr[arr[n] / 2];
System.out.println(arr[n] / 2);
}
}
Predict the Output
class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
int a[][] = {{ 1, 2, 3}, { 4 , 5, 6}, { 7, 8, 9}};
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i)
for (int j = 0; j < 3 ; ++j)
sum = sum + a[i][j];
System.out.print(sum / 5);
}
}
Predict the Output
