We can return an array in Java from a method in Java. Here we have a method createArray() from which we create an array dynamically by taking values from the user and return the created array.Exampleimport java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Scanner; public class ReturningAnArray {    public int[] createArray() {       Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);       System.out.println("Enter the size of the array that is to be created:: ");       int size = sc.nextInt();       int[] myArray = new int[size];       System.out.println("Enter the elements of the array ::");       for(int i=0; i

Yes, you can −int [] myArray1 = {23, 45, 78, 90, 10}; int [] myArray2 = {23, 45, myArray1[2], 90, 10};But, once you do so the second array stores the reference of the value, not the reference of the whole array. For this reason, any updating in the array will not affect the referred value −Exampleimport java.util.Arrays; public class RefferencingAnotherArray {    public static void main(String args[]) {       int [] myArray1 = {23, 45, 78, 90, 10};       int [] myArray2 = {23, 45, myArray1[2], 90, 10};       System.out.println("Contents of the 2nd ...

To pull distinct values in an array you need to compare each element of the array to all the remaining elements, in case of a match you got your duplicate element. One solution to do so you need to use two loops (nested) where the inner loop starts with i+1 (where i is the variable of outer loop) to avoid repetitions in comparison.Exampleimport java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Scanner; public class DetectDuplcate {    public static void main(String args[]) {       Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);       System.out.println("Enter the size of the array that is to be created::"); ...

There are two separate concepts here − scope, which determines where a name can be accessed - global and local storage duration, which determines when a variable is created and destroyed - static and auto Scope Local variables can be used only by statements that are inside that function or block of code. Local variables are not known to functions on their own. Example #include using namespace std; int main () { // Local variable declaration: int a, b; int c; // actual initialization a = 10; b = 20; c = a + b; cout
