JAVA UNIT 1

Array, String
JAVA ARRAY

• Java array is an object which contains elements of a similar data type

• The elements of an array are stored in a contiguous memory location.

• It is a data structure where we store similar elements.


Types of Array in java

• Single Dimensional Array

• Two-dimensional array

• Multidimensional Array
Single Dimensional Array in Java

• Syntax to Declare an Array in Java


• dataType[] arr; (or)
• dataType []arr; (or)
• dataType arr[];

• Creating array
• Arrayname = new type[size];
• Rollno = new int[10];
Declaration, Instantiation and Initialization of
Java Array

• int a[]={33,3,4,5};//declaration, instantiation and initialization


Multidimensional Array in Java

In such case, data is stored in row and column-based index (also known as matrix form).

• dataType[][] arrayRefVar; (or)

• dataType [][]arrayRefVar; (or)

• dataType arrayRefVar[][]; (or)

• dataType []arrayRefVar[];
Example to instantiate Multidimensional Array in Java

• int[][] arr=new int[3][3];//3 row and 3 column


Example to initialize Multidimensional Array in Java
• arr[0][0]=1;
• arr[0][1]=2;
• arr[0][2]=3;
• arr[1][0]=4;
• arr[1][1]=5;
• arr[1][2]=6;
• arr[2][0]=7;
• arr[2][1]=8;
• arr[2][2]=9;
Java String
In Java, string is basically an object that represents sequence of char
values. An array of characters works same as Java string.

For example:

• char[] ch={'j','a','v','a','t','p','o','i','n','t'};

• String s=new String(ch);

• is same as:

• String s="javatpoint";
How to create a string object?
There are two ways to create String object:
• By string literal
• By new keyword
1) String Literal
Java String literal is created by using double quotes.
For Example:
String s="welcome";
2) By new keyword
String s=new String("Welcome");//creates two objects and
one reference variable
