Iterating through a variable length array

Question

How do I iterate over a Java array of variable length.

I guess I would setup a while loop, but how would I detect that I have reached the end of the array.

Answer 1

here is an example, where the length of the array is changed during execution of the loop

import java.util.ArrayList;
public class VariableArrayLengthLoop {

public static void main(String[] args) {

    //create new ArrayList
    ArrayList aListFruits = new ArrayList();

    //add objects to ArrayList
    aListFruits.add("Apple");
    aListFruits.add("Banana");
    aListFruits.add("Orange");
    aListFruits.add("Strawberry");

    //iterate ArrayList using for loop
    for(int i = 0; i < aListFruits.size(); i++){

        System.out.println( aListFruits.get(i) + " i = "+i );
         if ( i == 2 ) {
                aListFruits.add("Pineapple");  
                System.out.println( "added now a Fruit to the List "); 
                }
        }
    }
}
