Answer 1

public class MultipleReturnValues {

    public MultipleReturnValues() {
    }

    public static void functionWithSeveralReturnValues(final String[] returnValues) {
        returnValues[0] = "return value 1";
        returnValues[1] = "return value 2";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String[] returnValues = new String[2];
        functionWithSeveralReturnValues(returnValues);
        System.out.println("returnValues[0] = " + returnValues[0]);
        System.out.println("returnValues[1] = " + returnValues[1]);
    }

}
