What about
Arrays?
lArrays are available
in Java,
•But
unlike C and C++, one of Java’s primary goals is safety.
•So, a
Java array is guaranteed to be initialized and it cannot be accessed outside of its range
•Range
checking requires a small amount of memory overhead on each array as well as index verification at run time.
•And, as
shown on the previous slide, argument passing with arrays are considerably different (look where the [] go!)
