Answer 1

What you need is exactly an java.util.ArrayList You can check the documentation in http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/ArrayList.html

Basically is a List implemented with an Array where the references live in a continuous chunk of memory.

I recommend to use in combination with a interface variable like this: List stringList = new ArrayList(); so if you decide, you can change the implementation to java.util.LinkedList or another one.
