Java Passing Array To Method

Some simple code to show how to pass a basic array to a method and then manipulate elements within that method.

------------------------------------CODE-------------------------------------


public class PassArray
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int array[] ={1,2,3,4,5};

System.out.println(" Effects of passing reference to entire array ");

////////////////////////////////////
/// output original array elements//
////////////////////////////////////

for (int value : array)
{
System.out.printf("    %d",value);
}



modifyArray(array);
System.out.println("\n\nThe Values of the modified array are :");

////////////////////////
//output modified arry//
////////////////////////

for (int value : array)
{
System.out.printf("    %d",value);
}


System.out.printf("\n\nThe Values of the modified array are :\n"+"
                array[3] before mofifiedElement : %d\n",array[3]);

modifyElement(array[3]);

System.out.printf("\n\nThe Values of the modified array are :\n"+"
                array[3] before mofifiedElement : %d\n",array[3]);

}
public static void modifyArray(int array2[])
{
for (int counter=0; counter<array2.length; counter++)
{
array2[counter] *=2; ///array2[counter] = array2[counter] * 2
}

}

public static void modifyElement(int element)
{

element *=2; ///element = element * 2

System.out.printf("Value of element in modifyElement : %d\n",element);
}

}


----------------------------OUTPUT----------------------------------------


 Effects of passing reference to entire array
    1    2    3    4    5

The Values of the modified array are :
    2    4    6    8    10

The Values of the modified array are :
array[3] before mofifiedElement : 8
Value of element in modifyElement : 16


The Values of the modified array are :
array[3] before mofifiedElement : 8
