Single Dimensional Array In Java

Welcome back, bloggers! In this post you will learn about single dimensional arrays in Java.
First of all, what is an array? An array is a fixed sized sequenced collection of elements of a same data type.
Array in Java is index-based. The very first element is stored at 0th position.


Advantages of array in Java:

1. Memory does not get wasted.
2. We can get any data located at any fixed index value.

Single Dimensional Array in Java:

A single dimensional array contains only one row and no number of columns.

Syntax:     datatype name[];

Initialization of a single dimensional array:     array[] = new int[5];


Now, let's see an example of a single dimensional array:

class JavaArray {

     public static void main(String[] args) {

int array[]; //declaration
     array = new int[5];  //instantiation

a[0] = 1;  //initialization
a[1] = 2;
a[2] = 3;
a[3] = 4;
a[4] = 5;

//printing the array:
for(int i=0; i<=array.length; i++)
System.out.println(array[i]);
                                  }
                             }






A single dimensional array can also be made by the following way:

Syntax:     int array[] = {10,20,30,40,50};

Example:

class JavaArray {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int array[] = {10,20,30,40,50}; //initialization, instantiation and declaration

//printing the array:
for(int i = 0; i<=array.length; i++)
System.out.println(array[i]);
                      }
               }




Thank you for coming to my blog. Now you have learnt how to declare, instantiate, initialize and print a single dimensional array!

VLOOKUP in MS Excel

VLOOKUP in MS Excel H ello and welcome back to Learn Java. It's been very long since I wrote my last post. This post will give you a short and simple tutorial on using VLOOKUP in MS Excel. Verticle Lookup or VLOOKUP is a function in MS Excel that helps a user look for a specific value in a column   based on another particular value in the first column. A simple example: Your boss asks you to find the price of a food item based on its name. Syntax: VLOOKUP(the value you want to look up, where you want to look for it(array/column/table), the column number the value is in, return an approximate or exact match) Let's try to understand it more clearly: Here's a little data set containing a table of my favourite food items.  Step 1: Select a specific cell/text value you would like to search for in the given table/data set. Here, we are looking for the price of Pizza, so we use cell value "Pizza" which is also cell reference A3. We are making sure to use a cell value/re

Simple Java program

J ava is a high level programming language which is used almost everywhere- in Android mobile phones, set top boxes, in Google Maps, video games, etc. Today let's see how to make the simplest Java program- "Hello, world" in Eclipse. Step #1. Select your file location where you want to save your work. Step #2. Select File>New>Project as shown in the picture below: Step #3. Select Java>Java Project>Next as shown below: Step #4. Enter the project name in Project name as shown below: Step #5. Select Finish. Step #6. Select Yes. Step #7. Double click one the project name. You will see a folder named as "src" under the the project HelloWorld. Step #8. Right click on the folder "src">New>Class. Step #9. Enter the name of the class. Then click on Finish. Step #10. You will see a screen like this: Step #11. Write the following code: public class Hello { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, world!!"); }
