Count The Amount Of Data In An Array Including SOME Null
- by Josephine
I'm coding in java and I need to create a function that returns the number of Data objects that are currently in an ArrayList. At the moment I have this:
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
{
if (data[i] != null)
{
count ++;
}
}
return count;
But the problem is that an array list that includes null data is acceptable, and I have to count their null data towards this counter. How do I include the null data that's in the middle of this array, and not the null data that's not supposed to be counted for?
For example, I have some tester code that adds (8),null,null,(23),(25) to the array, and this function should return 5 when the initial array size is 10.
Thank you so much
