hello lalit,

object ia = new float[20]; is same as

float f1 = new float[20];
object ia = f1;


an array of float is an object( ie: an instance)... therefore this reference can be assigned to the oblect ia....

correct me if i am wrong...

hi mithun gm
you are right
but maybe you type incorrect

  float[] f1 = new float[20];
        Object ia = f1;

As every array objects take the default value of the declared type, how will i traverse thru the following code

Object obj = new int[10];

now, the 10 objects should have the default value as 0. The question is, how do i traverse the array ??

One way, you need cast back to array.
int[] x = (int[])obj;
