how to add element to int array 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 add element to existing array

//original array
String[] rgb = new String[] {"red", "green"};
//new array with one more length
String[] rgb2 = new String[rgb.length + 1];
//copy the old in the new array
System.arraycopy(rgb, 0, rgb2, 0, rgb.length);
//add element to new array
rgb2[rgb.length] = "blue";
//optional: set old array to new array
rgb = rgb2;
