add element to array at index java code example

Example 1: java insert array

// ! IMPORTANTE !
// in JAVA an array is not the same as an ArrayList object!!
// 1 - declare, instanciate and populate
int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 }; 
// 2 - declare and instanciate an int array with maxSize
// note: the index goes between 0 and maxSize-1
int newarr[] = new int[maxSize];
// 2.1 - insert the value n on the position pos
newarr[pos] = n; 
// 2.2 - insert values recursively
for (i = 0; i < maxSize; i++) { newarr[i] = arr[i]; }

Example 2: java array add element

// A better solution would be to use an ArrayList which can grow as you need it. 
// The method ArrayList.toArray( T[] a ) 
// gives you back your array if you need it in this form.

List<String> where = new ArrayList<String>();
where.add(element);
where.add(element);

// If you need to convert it to a simple array...

String[] simpleArray = new String[ where.size() ];
where.toArray( simpleArray );
