Returning an Array from a Method

[Tony Costello]

Hello all I am attempting to write a method which gathers values from a text file, sticks em in an array and return the array.

I keep getting an error upon compiling:

java:41: '.class' expected
return age[];


Here is my code:

 import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class lab73
{
	public static void main(String[] arg)
	{	
		int data=getData;
		
	}
	
	
	public static int[] getData(int age[])
	{
	
			Scanner inFile = new Scanner(new FileReader("age.txt"));
			int i;
		
			while(inFile.hasNext())
			{
			
				for(i=0;i<10;i++)
				{
					age[i]=inFile.nextInt();
				}
			}
		
		return age[];
	}
}

The parameter "age", is an int array, and you need to return an int array... so...

return age;   

is what you want.
