Lesson 8 - Arrays and Strings

Simple variables are fine when dealing with small amounts of data, but are unwieldy when working with larger quantities. Fortunately, Java has support for using collections of data--both through built-in arrays, and through API classes like Vector.

Lesson 8 sections are as follows:

8.1 Introducing Arrays

Learn how to create and initialize Java primitive arrays.

8.2 Processing Arrays

Learn to store and retrieve elements using Java arrays and loops.

8.3 Object Arrays Learn how to store objects in arrays and how to use the Vector class.
8.4 Arrays

Learn to work with two-dimensional and ragged arrays.

8.5 Strings

Learn to use Strings, String methods, String arrays, and command-line arguments.

8.6 GridLayout
