    how it is possible to declear an array refrence of to name an array dynamically
    Are you asking how to add a new variable name to a compiled program while it is executing?
    You can get that effect by using a Map with the key being the "name" of the value.
    You can create new values and references to those values at execution time.

    If this is not what you want, Can you explain what you are trying to do?
