0072 Array creation is a two-step process

declare a variable of the desired array type. allocate the memory using new. In Java all arrays are dynamically allocated. You can access a specific element in the array with [index]. All array indexes start at zero. For example, the following code assigns the value 28 to the second element of days. public class Main { public static void main(String[] argv) { int days[]; days = new int[12]; days[1] = 28; System.out.println(days[1]); } } It is possible to combine the declaration of the array variable with the allocation of the array itself. int month_days[] = new int[12];
