Java Arrays - Complete Guide + Questions

What is an Array in Java?

An array is a collection of elements of the same data type stored in a contiguous memory location.

1. Declaration and Initialization

a) Declaration

int[] marks;

String names[];

b) Initialization

int[] marks = new int[5];

marks[0] = 90;

marks[1] = 85;

Or inline:

int[] marks = {90, 85, 88, 92, 75};

2. Accessing and Traversing

for (int i = 0; i < marks.length; i++) {

System.out.println("Mark " + i + ": " + marks[i]);

For-each loop:

for (int mark : marks) {

System.out.println(mark);
}

3. Array Length

System.out.println("Length: " + marks.length);

4. Multidimensional Array

int[][] matrix = {

{1, 2, 3},

{4, 5, 6}

};

for (int i = 0; i < matrix.length; i++) {

for (int j = 0; j < matrix[i].length; j++) {

System.out.print(matrix[i][j] + " ");

System.out.println();

5. Array Methods (java.util.Arrays)

import java.util.Arrays;

int[] nums = {5, 3, 9, 1};

Arrays.sort(nums);

System.out.println(Arrays.toString(nums));
int index = Arrays.binarySearch(nums, 3);

System.out.println("Index of 3: " + index);

6. Important Points

- Default values: int 0, boolean false, Object null

- Fixed size once declared

- Arrays are objects

- Passed by reference

Example Program:

public class ArrayDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

String[] fruits = {"Apple", "Banana", "Mango"};

for (int i = 0; i < fruits.length; i++) {

System.out.println("Fruit " + i + ": " + fruits[i]);

Questions:

1. What is the default value of an int array in Java?

2. How do you access the last element of an array?

3. Write a program to reverse an array.

4. How is a 2D array stored in Java?

5. Whats the difference between .length and .length()?


6. Write code to find the maximum element in an array.

7. What is the output of Arrays.toString({3,2,1}) after sorting?
