Description:AP CS A - Array problems (Unit 6)

Go down to the bottom of every CodingBat problem page and you will find a great and helpful introduction to arrays written by Nick Parlante, creator of CodingBat. Remember to use square brackets to refer to an element of an array, like

a[0]

You can change the value of this element by using an assignment, like

a[0] = 5;

When creating an array, use the data type of the elements followed by square brackets. Arrays use the new keyword since they are objects, but are the only Java object type that don't use a constructor method (with parentheses). Instead, they use square brackets again.

int[] a = new int[5]; // array of 5 int elements

You can use a loop that goes through all the array elements in order (often a for loop). Much like looping problems with String, array looping problems will often have a loop control variable starting at 0 and incrementing while less than the length of the array. Many (but not all!) looping problems can also be completed using the enhanced for loop, sometimes also called the for-each loop.
