Using Loops with Arrays

How to iterate through an array using loops?

Arrays and loops are frequently used in tandem. When dealing with a large array containing 100 or even 1000 elements, manually working with and extracting each element would be impractical. Just imagine how time-consuming it would be to manually fill such an array...

To achieve such tasks, we'll employ loops. In the previous section, we observed that we initially assigned the variable i a value of 0 in the for loop, and array indexing also starts at 0.

Let's say we have a task to display all the elements of an array of type char with a length of 10. Let's examine a code fragment that accomplishes this task:

Main


              12345678910111213
            
package com.example;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Initializing a char array
        char[] charArray = {'c', 'o', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'i', 'n', 'i', 't', 'y'};
        
        // Printing the array using a for-loop
        for (int i = 0; i < charArray.length; i++) {
            System.out.print(charArray[i]);
        }
    }
}

Let's take a closer look at how the loop iterates over an array:

Main


              1234567891011121314
            
package com.example;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Initializing the char array
        char[] charArray = {'c', 'o', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'i', 'n', 'i', 't', 'y'};
        
        // Printing the array using a for-loop
        for (int i = 0; i < charArray.length; i++) {
            System.out.println("Now variable i = " + i + ", and value of charArray[" + i + "] = " + charArray[i] + ";");
         // The value of `i` increments with each loop iteration
        }
    }
}

We have an array with the hours worked by an employee over 10 days. You need to calculate the total number of hours and find the average number of hours per day. If the average is less than 8, display a penalty; if it's 8 or more, praise the employee.

Define the size of the workHours array and assign it to the variable sizeMassive.
Specify the correct condition in the for loop.
Calculate the total hours using the totalHours variable.
Compute the average hours by dividing totalHours by the number of elements in the array.
