Fill Elements in a Short Array in Java

Elements can be filled in a short array using the java.util.Arrays.fill() method. This method assigns the required short value to the short array in Java. The two parameters required are the array name and the value that is to be stored in the array elements.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.util.Arrays;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
      short[] shortArray = new short[5];
      short shortValue = 1;
      Arrays.fill(shortArray, shortValue);
      System.out.println("The short array content is: " + Arrays.toString(shortArray));
   }
}

Output

The short array content is: [1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

Now let us understand the above program.

First the short array shortArray[] is defined. Then the value 1 is filled in the short array using the Arrays.fill() method. Finally, the short array is printed using the Arrays.toString() method. A code snippet which demonstrates this is as follows −

short[] shortArray = new short[5];
short shortValue = 1;
Arrays.fill(shortArray, shortValue);
System.out.println("The short array content is: " + Arrays.toString(shortArray));
