4.1 Array Declaration, Initialization & Default Values | Java OCA 1Z0-808
Java OCA 1Z0-808 4.1 — Array Declaration, Initialization & Default Values
Master Java Arrays for the Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 8 (1Z0-808) exam.
In this video, we cover:
✅ What is an array — fixed size, zero-indexed, homogeneous
✅ Three valid bracket placement styles — int[] arr, int arr[], int []arr
✅ The declaration trap — int[] a, b makes BOTH arrays, int a[], b does not
✅ Method 1 — new keyword with size: new int[3] and default values
✅ Method 2 — inline initializer: int[] arr = {1, 2, 3}
✅ Method 3 — anonymous array: new int[]{1, 2, 3} for method arguments
✅ Why new int[3]{1,2,3} is a compile error — size AND values not allowed together
✅ Why new int[(long)5] is a compile error — array size must be int
✅ new int[0] — valid empty array
✅ Default values by type — 0, false, null for object arrays
✅ NullPointerException trap — calling methods on uninitialized object array elements
✅ Shared reference trap — two variables pointing to the same array
✅ Practice question with step-by-step trace at the end
This is Objective 4 of the OCA exam: "Working with Arrays — Declare, instantiate, initialize and use a one-dimensional array."
