In Python you can do the following:
myList = [1, 2, 3, 4]
a, b, c, d = myList
print a # -> 1
print d # -> 4
Is there a way to do such a thing in Java? Better/faster than below:
int[] myList= {1, 2, 3, 4};
int a = myList[0];
int b = myList[1];
int c = myList[2];
int d = myList[3];
You could use an ArrayList of type Integer.
This would look like the following code:
List<Integer> myList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
Then you can set variables by using .set(int where, int what)
myList.set(0,1);
Or you can just append with .add(int what)
myList.add(2);
Then you can get the variables by using .get(int where)
int a = myList.get(0);
int b = myList.get(1);
This sets variable a to 1 and variable b to 2, because you append it at the very end. The advantage of those ArrayLists are, that you can get variables more easy than with Array, but you need a litte bit more code to add it. So its good for a big pool of non-changing variables in your code.
int a = myList.get(0); "more easy" than int a = myList[0];? And btw myList.set(0,1); won't work if there is no index 0.
