Java Code Example: passing array to method

Method for doubling the elements of an integer array. Due to the referent passing, the values of the array change in the main program.

public class MethodsArrayExample {
    public static void doubles(int[] array) {
        for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
            array[i] = 2 * array[i];
        }
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        int[] myArray = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 };

        doubles(myArray);

        System.out.println("values from array doubled: ");
        for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {
            System.out.print(myArray[i] + " ");
        }
    }
}

Output

values from array doubled: 
2 4 6 8 10 12 14
