The Arrays Class



The java.util.Arrays class contains various static methods for sorting and searching arrays, comparing arrays, and filling array elements. These methods are overloaded for all primitive types.
SNMethods with Description
1public static int binarySearch(Object[] a, Object key)
Searches the specified array of Object ( Byte, Int , double etc) for the specified value using the binary search algorithm. The array must be sorted prior to making this call. This returns index of the search key, if it is contained in the list; otherwise, (-(insertion point + 1).
2public static boolean equals(long[] a, long[] a2)
Returns true if the two specified arrays of longs are equal to one another. Two arrays are considered equal if both arrays contain the same number of elements, and all corresponding pairs of elements in the two arrays are equal. This returns true if the two arrays are equal. Same method could be used by all other premitive data types ( Byte, short, Int etc.)
3public static void fill(int[] a, int val)
Assigns the specified int value to each element of the specified array of ints. Same method could be used by all other premitive data types ( Byte, short, Int etc.)
4public static void sort(Object[] a)
Sorts the specified array of objects into ascending order, according to the natural ordering of its elements. Same method could be used by all other premitive data types ( Byte, short, Int etc.)
