Query about the enhanced for loop

[Harish Kamath]

A quick question about the below example that I came across on CertPal

public class TestClass {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
        Object[] obj = new String[5][5];
        int counter=0;
        for (Object o : obj )
        {
            counter++;
        }
        System.out.println(counter);
	}

}

The output of the above is

5

How is it possible to assign a two dimensional String array to a single dimensional Object array?

Thanks in advance.

Each array is an Object type okay ? GOOD BYE

Yes - my question was more specific to the dimension of the reference type. The reference type definition has one dimension where as the initialization has two dimensional String array.

Object[] obj = new String[5][5];

Note that it is Object [] I would have expected it to be something like Object [][].

Array or array of arrays it doesn't matter, it is type of Object.Okay?
