PLease help, I am trying to...

[SandeeBee]

Declare an array named a of * ten* elements of type int and initialize the elements (starting with the first) to the values 10 , 20 , ..., 100 respectively.

[KevinWorkman]

What have you tried? Where are you stuck?

[SandeeBee]

int a [10] = {10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100};

[KevinWorkman]

And what does that do?

[SandeeBee]

It returns an error.

[KevinWorkman]

What is the error?

Like we said in your other post, the basic tutorials are your best friend.

Not when I am trying to complete an assignment. Thanks for your help.

Especially when you're trying to complete an assignment.

As a side note, you can either initialize an array to a given size or to what it starts with, not both at the same time.

This doesn't make any sense. How do you expect to complete the assignment without looking at the tutorials? For that matter, how is getting help from other people allowed if looking through the tutorials yourself is not?

[SandeeBee]

Because looking at the tuorial is more of a foreign language than being on this board. I do not understand any of it. I checked the tutorials before joining this site. This was my last resort.

take out the 10 in side the brackets and it should be fine

[SandeeBee]

Thanks so much, if you get a chance , could you send me a link to a java beginners site or a java for dummies website?

Assignments usually means time-pressure. Taking that into account, here is the answer:

int[] a = {10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100};

That makes an array of ten int-numbers. 10 to 100.

If you want to test it out for yourself, this little code will print out everything:

for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++)
System.out.println(a[i]);

Hope it helped.

EDIT (You got the answer already, but i wanted to illustrate it for clarity^^)

Can't he read all this from internet???
We are not here to spoon feed but to teach others to learn from the mistakes on their own. Appreciate your hep but don't spoon feed

Given the fact that the tutorials solve a problem which is identical to yours but a factor of 10 out, makes me wonder whether your assignment was to actually read the documentation.

If that is a foreign language to you, then parhaps you should re-consider programming. All programming relies around the ablility to read documentation/man pages on a subject you do not know and make sense of it.
