What does the error 'ArrayIndexOutOfBounds' indicate?
What does the error 'ArrayIndexOutOfBounds' indicate?
- The array index being referred to is outside the bounds of the array. (correct)
- The array is sorted in descending order.
- The array is empty and no elements can be accessed.
- The array index is negative.
What is the main difference between an array and an ArrayList?
What is the main difference between an array and an ArrayList?
- Arrays can store primitive data types, while ArrayLists can only store objects.
- Arrays are more efficient in terms of memory usage compared to ArrayLists.
- ArrayLists can change in size dynamically, while arrays have a fixed size once declared. (correct)
- ArrayLists can only store one type of data, while arrays can store multiple types.
What is the purpose of the 'binarySearch' method?
What is the purpose of the 'binarySearch' method?
- To sort the elements in an array in ascending order.
- To search for a specific element in a sorted array efficiently. (correct)
- To reverse the order of elements in an array.
- To randomly shuffle the elements in an array.
