Question about a method

[Fumie Suguri]

How would you call a method that has an array for its parameter?

[vivien siu]

This is a method with an array of datatype String for parameter/argument:

public void method(String[] array)

To call it you just have to pass a String array in the parameter values. Like this:

String[] array = new String[1];
method(array);

[Jeff Albertson]

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        //pass it a variable name of array type:
        int[] a = new int[10];
        f(a);
 
        //pass it an array created in the call
        f(new int[10]);
 
        //pass it an array created and initialized in the call
        f(new int[]{3,1,4,1,5,9});
 
        //pass it any expression of array type, like the result of another method call
        f(another());
    }
 
    static void f(int[] array) {}
 
    static int[] another () {
        return new int[]{3,1,4,1,5,9};
    }
}
