Question

Circle[] circleArray = new Circle[10];

The above statement declares the array cicleArray to hold 10 elements of type Circle. But the storage for each element object of type Circle is not defined until each element is created with an "= new Circle()" statement. The author does that in a loop by invoking the no-argument Constructor:

for (int i = 0; i < circleArray.length; i++) {

   circleArray[i] = new Circle() <--- Declares a single element to be of type Circle.

}

We know now not to declare a variable in the for statement as well as not to use terse variables such as i.

The above loop is fine when each element of the Array is to have default values. But what happens if we want to give each element object specific data hard-coded into the program? We could not use a loop in that case. For example:

circleArray[0] = new Circle(2.5);

circleArray[1] = new Circle(5.6);

etc.

1. Using the Final Project UML Class Diagram and the data in the UML Notation for Objects, show us how to declare an array of type Student and define the first 4 elements invoking the proper Constructor from the Student Class.

2. Show us how to define the the 5th element by first invoking the no-argument Constructor and then invoking the individual Mutator (set) methods to assign data to that object.
