Question

Hi!

I’m just beginning to learn Java and i was wondering if how is it possible to put array elements in multiple lines when declaring an array.

The following code gives me an error:

public String[] songList = {'Stadium Arcadium', 'Make You Feel Better', 'Under The Bridge',
       'Wet Sand', 'Californication', 'Charlie', 'Aeroplane', 'Transcending', 'Ethiopia'};

Thank you very much!

Yes, you can put your strings on multiple lines.

However, use double-quotes to surround your String literals:

public String[] songList = {"Stadium Arcadium", "Make You Feel Better", "Under The Bridge",
       "Wet Sand", "Californication", "Charlie", "Aeroplane", "Transcending", "Ethiopia"};
