how to create a new syntax in java?

PLEASE HELP! JAVA PROGRAMMING (CHARACTER)?

• I'm trying to create a variable (name) with 20 characters inside a Java program. In C programming, we use : char name[20]; I tried char name = new char[20]; in Java but it doesn't work. How can we create a variable with 20 characters inside a Java program? Please write the syntax, thank you!

• Answer:

  You were close. char[] name = new char[20]; is the correct syntax. You can't forget the [] in the initialization. It can be applied on either one as well. char name[] = new char[20]; this performs the same as the above syntax.
