Learn how to program in java with our online tutorial. We will cover variables, loops, if else branching, arrays, strings, objects, classes, object oriented programming, conditional statements, and more.

I really like your courses, much information provided in a clear way to understand., thank you! One tip regarding this lesson. It is much easier just to make loop like this:
for (int i = 0; i < jason.length; i++)

instead of using i <= jason.length-1


I always use for arrays '<' instead of '<=' - this way you never had to remember about putting -1

You can also remove the = sign in <= to be simplier.

Thank you, I bumped into this on my notes but couldn't remember how it worked and this made it very clear :)

Does apersand give a problem while calculation length?
