Question

im stuck with the dilemma of defining multiple objects with different names, i would like to define an amount of objects according to an amount i need taken from another part of the program

the part object(i) isnt correct, i just put it there to illustrate my problem

    for(int i = 1; i <= amountOfObjectsNeeded; i++){

        someclass object(i) = new someclass();
    }

does anyone know how to get around this?

Answer 1

You should use an array in this case:

Someclass[] array = new Someclass[amountOfObjectsNeeded];
for (int i = 0; i < amountOfObjectsNeeded; i++) {
    array[i] = new Someclass();
}

Note how the loop starts from 0 rather than 1–arrays in Java are indexed starting at 0.
