Re: length variable in arrays

When u declare a new array ,say whose members are of type "String"
we write like this : String[] str;
str is not an object of type String its simply an array whose members are of type String class
Then when you create an aray u give like this
str = new String[10];
The purpose of the new operator is to reserve memory for 10 members ,ie String in this case.
To get the size of the array we use str.length , here length is not a method ,length is a
property provided by the Java platform for all arrays
