The array has no method.
The util package has an array class that accepts an array, and lets you
perform operations on it.

Hi,
In the API. I got lost when I was trying to search for the documentation for
arrays. I saw something similar in the java.util package.

Hi Jim,

Do you mean you want to know where in the API or   something else?

Hi Suzie,
Yes it has. Thank you. Now I just want to find out which methods arrays have
besides length. Do you know where to read about array methods?

Thanks.

Was curious about this.  From what I've read, you can think of an
array as a class and java seems to treat it under the hood as one.

See:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/arrays.doc.html

Noteably:
        public static void main(String[] args) {
                int[] ia = new int[3];
                System.out.println(ia.getClass());
                System.out.println(ia.getClass().getSuperclass());
        }
}

which prints:

class [I
class java.lang.Object

where the string "[I" is the run-time type signature for the class
object "array with component type int".
