Java 2 dimensional array

Question

@ Gouki Pls check if this is a correct Implementation as there may be multiple attributes in my row that has T,N or X -I basically want to check if the first attribute in every row for a value of T,N or X and do some business logic- Thanks

public void printarray(List<String[]> usersList)     {  
  for(String[] row: usersList) {

      System.out.println(row[0]);

if(row[0].equals("N")){
System.out.println("Insert records in DB");
System.out.println("*********************");
System.out.println(row[1]+" , " + row[2]+" , "+row[3]+" , " + row[4]+" " +row[5]);
}
     if(row[0].equals("T")){
System.out.println("Get date from DB and update DB based on the same");
System.out.println("*********************");
System.out.println(row[1]+" , " + row[2]+" , "+row[3]+" , " + row[4]+" " +row[5]);
}
     if(row[0].equals("X")){
System.out.println("Update 2 sub tables");
System.out.println("*********************");
System.out.println(row[1]+" , " + row[2]+" , "+row[3]+" , " + row[4]+" " +row[5]);
}

}
}

You can perhaps use a List as container for every row (which is an array).

List<String[]> userList = new ArrayList<String[]>();

and then on your while loop:

  while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
        String[] values = line.split(",");
        userList.add(values);
  }

To retrieve, modify your printarray :

public void printarray(List<String[]> usersList)
    {

        for(String[] row: usersList) {
            for(String element:row) {
                System.out.println(element);
            }
        }
        System.out.println();

    }

Why don't you put values directly into userList?

trashgod Over a year ago

Also consider List<List<String>>.

@ In ur updated answe pls help me with populating in userlist itself and retrieving it as well Thanks a lot for your help

@user549432 , I've updated the answer to demonstrate how to retrieve the data from the list. It functions just the same as your original method (print the elements)
