Thread: Arrays

I am writing a public instance method called writeCharacter() which takes a single argument
of type char called aCharacter and returns no result. The method invokes the getCharacter() method
on the DisplayFont class with aCharacter as its argument. The getCharacter() returns a two-dimensional
array of type boolean which has x and y dimensions.
I would like to assign the array to a local variable called alpha.

The question is how do I code this with correct syntax into my method writeCharacter(char aCharacter)

 
/* instance method */
 
	/**
	 *    
	 */
	public void writeCharacter(char aCharacter)
 
  {
     DisplayFont.getCharacter(aCharacter);
 
  }

Thanks a million,

Simply declare the array and assign the return result of getCharacter to that variable. There's no need to pre-determine the dimensions (that's determined by getCharacter when it first allocated the array).

public void writeCharacter(char aCharacter)
 
  {
     boolean alpha[][] = DisplayFont.getCharacter(aCharacter);
 
  }
