How do I do this.

[frasifrasi]

This a homework problem, but I am stuck, I don't know how to fix it - it just says the result is wrong.

An array of Strings, names, has been declared and initialized. Write the statements needed to determine whether any of the the array elements are null or refer to the empty String. Set the variable hasEmpty to true if any elements are null or empty-- otherwise set it to false.

My ans:

hasEmpty = false;
for(int i = 0; i < names.length; i++){
if(names[i] == null){ hasEmpty = true;}

}


Can anyone help?

Thanks!

What does that mean? Do you have an error message that you could copy and post here???

There is a problem in your code that it is only checking for a null value and not for the case where the String value = "" (an empty string). You need to add a test for that. Remember that a string variable is an object and that to access/test the value of an object you must use a method. Clue: Read the API doc for String to see what method(s) would test for equality.
