medium📝 Debug Q14 of 15
Java - Arrays
Identify the error in this Java code snippet:
int[] data = new int[5];
System.out.println(data.length());
AArray length property does not exist in Java
BArray size must be declared with curly braces, not square brackets
CThe array must be initialized with values before accessing length
DArray length is accessed with parentheses, causing a compile error
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check how length is accessed

    The code uses data.length() with parentheses, but length is a property, not a method.
  2. Step 2: Confirm correct syntax

    The correct way is data.length without parentheses. Using parentheses causes a compile-time error.
  3. Final Answer:

    Array length is accessed with parentheses, causing a compile error -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    length is a property, no parentheses [OK]
Quick Trick: Remember: length is property, no () [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Using parentheses after length
  • Confusing array initialization syntax
  • Thinking length needs array values first
