Suppose you have have the following arrays
int[] a = new int[] {1, 2, 3};
String[] b = new String[] {"a", "b", "c"};
The easiest way to print the arrays would be to:
import java.util.Arrays;
class PrintArray {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] a = new int[] {1, 2, 3};
String[] b = new String[] {"a", "b", "c"};
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(a));
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(b));
}
}
output
[1, 2, 3]
[a, b, c]
If you are using Java 4 or earlier, you can use the following code:
import java.util.Arrays;
class PrintArray {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[] a = new int[] {1, 2, 3};
String[] b = new String[] {"a", "b", "c"};
Integer[] c = new Integer[] {new Integer(1), new Integer(2)};
System.out.println(Arrays.asList(a));
System.out.println(Arrays.asList(b));
System.out.println(Arrays.asList(c));
}
}
output
[[I@5b565b56]
[a, b, c]
[1, 2]
As you can see from the output. Arrays.asList() does not work with primitive types.
class PrintArray {
int[] a = new int[] {1, 2, 3};
String[] b = new String[] {"a", "b", "c"};
Integer[] c = new Integer[] {new Integer(1), new Integer(2)};
for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
System.out.print(a[i] + " ");
}
System.out.println();
for (int i = 0; i < b.length; i++) {
System.out.print(b[i] + " ");
}
System.out.println();
for (int i = 0; i < c.length; i++) {
System.out.print(c[i] + " ");
}
}
}
This old fashion code will work for primitives and objects and with any version of Java.
