add an element to int [] array in java [duplicate]

Answer 1

You'll need to create a new array if you want to add an index.

Try this:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    int[] series = new int[0];
    int x = 5;


    series = addInt(series, x);

    //print out the array with commas as delimiters
    System.out.print("New series: ");
    for (int i = 0; i < series.length; i++){
        if (i == series.length - 1){
            System.out.println(series[i]);
        }
        else{
            System.out.print(series[i] + ", ");
        }
    }
}

// here, create a method

public static int[] addInt(int [] series, int newInt){
    //create a new array with extra index
    int[] newSeries = new int[series.length + 1];

    //copy the integers from series to newSeries    
    for (int i = 0; i < series.length; i++){
        newSeries[i] = series[i];
    }
//add the new integer to the last index     
    newSeries[newSeries.length - 1] = newInt;



    return newSeries;

     }
