Arrays

Is it possible to construct an array that contains Strings instead of ints?

Thanks.

That's what is taken as an arguement for the main method
public static void main(String[] args)

Here is a quick example which creates a String array and populates it with a string that has been parsed. Also notice how the string array is being passed as an arguement to the openVault(String[] vault) method which has a string array defined as a parameter.

Code:

---

import java.util.*;

 class FortKnox{
 public static void main(String[] args){
  String s = "bronze silver gold ";
  StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(s);
  String[] vault = new String[3];
  int index = -1;

  while(st.hasMoreTokens()){
      String token = st.nextToken();
      vault[++index] = token;
    }
    openVault(vault);
  }
  public static void openVault(String[] vault){
    System.out.print("The contents of the vault are");
    System.out.println();
    for(int i = 0; i < vault.length; i++){
      System.out.println(vault[i]);
  }

String array [];

or

String array [] = new String [];
