Question

I am just learning Java as a hobby.

How do I make a class define a field? E.g.

private string[] biscuitlist

Thank you for any help provided.

Answer 1

Java is case sensitive. You need to declare it as String[], not as string[].

package yourpackage;

public class YourClass {

    private String[] biscuitlist;

}

That said, this is actually not “subclassing”. So your question title actually contradicts with the question message. To learn more about Java in general, I strongly recommend to go through the Trails Covering the Basics. Good luck.
