Check if two Short Arrays are equal or not in Java
Declaration :
|
1 |
public static boolean equals(short[] a, short[] a2) |
Explanation :
| Purpose | The java.util.Arrays.equals(short[] a short[] a2) method returns true if the two specified arrays of shorts are equal to one another.Two arrays are equal if they contain the same elements in the same order.Two array references are considered equal if both are null. |
| Parameters | a ===> This is the array to be tested for equality. |
| a2 ===> This is the other array to be tested for equality. | |
| Return Value | This method returns true if the two arrays are equal else false. |
| Exception | NA |

package com.c4learn; import java.util.Arrays; public class ArrayDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // Initialize 3 short arrays short[] arr1 = new short[] { 5, 10, 15, 20 }; short[] arr2 = new short[] { 5, 10, 15, 20 }; short[] arr3 = new short[] { 5, 10, 16, 20 }; // Compare the arrays arr1 and arr2 boolean returnV1 = Arrays.equals(arr1, arr2); System.out.println("Is arr1 and arr2 equal : " + returnV1); // Compare the arrays arr1 and arr3 boolean returnV2 = Arrays.equals(arr1, arr3); System.out.println("Is arr1 and arr3 equal: " + returnV2); // Compare the arrays arr2 and arr3 boolean returnV3 = Arrays.equals(arr2, arr3); System.out.println("Is arr2 and arr3 equal: " + returnV3); } } |
Output of Program :
