Java Array

Arrays allow us to store multiple values in a single variable. We declare an array by specifying the data type with square brackets, such as String[] or int[]. Values are then inserted into the array using an array literal with curly braces. Individual elements in an array can be accessed or changed by their index number, starting with 0 for the first element. The length property tells us how many elements the array contains.

Java Array

Java Arrays
Arrays are used to store multiple values in a single variable,
instead of declaring separate variables for each value.
To declare an array, define the variable type with square
brackets:

String[] cars;
Java Arrays
We have now declared a variable that holds an array of
strings. To insert values to it, we can use an array literal -
place the values in a comma-separated list, inside curly
braces:

String[] cars = {"Volvo", "BMW", "Ford", "Mazda"};


Java Arrays
To create an array of integers, you could write:

int[] myNum = {10, 20, 30, 40};


Access the Elements of an Array
You access an array element by referring to the index
number.
This statement accesses the value of the first element in
cars:
Access the Elements of an Array

Note: Array indexes start with 0: [0] is the first element. [1]
is the second element, etc.
Change an Array Element
To change the value of a specific element, refer to the index
number:
Change an Array Element
To change the value of a specific element, refer to the index
number:
Array Length
To find out how many elements an array has, use the length
property:
