In this post, we are going to learn about what is arrays in Java, Syntax for array in Java, How they work, and how it helps us to store multiple elements. We will also go through some simple coding examples to help you understand the concept better.
What is an Array in Java?
An array in Java is a data structure that allows us to store multiple values in a single variable. So Instead of declaring separate variables for each value, we can just create an array to store them all together in a fixed-size list. But in array, we can store only similar type of elements that simply means If we have created an integer array then we are allowed to store only integer type of elements in it and If we try to store other than integer type elements like double or String then we will get an compile time error saying incompatible types.
