SKILLS WARM-UP

True or False. Write your answer in the space provided.

True 1. Arrays have a fixed number of elements.

False 2. Arrays are made up only of numbers.
False 3. A single array can hold components of many different data types.
False 4. The statement
int[] list = new int[15];
creates list to be an array of 14 components because array index starts at 0.

True 5. When an array object is instantiated, its components are initialized to their default
values.
False 6. The following statement creates alpha to be a two-dimensional array of 35
components.
int[][] alpha = new int[20][15];
False 7. In Java, the array index starts at 1.
False 8. Arrays can be initialized when they are created.
True 9. When an application contains an array and you want to use every element of the
array in some task, it is common to perform loops that vary the loop control variable
from 0 to one less than the size of the array.
True 10. Two-dimensional arrays generally contain data in table form.
