how do i create a floating point array, the only way i have been able to compile a float type array is using the 'F' suffix however that would be rather tedious for a 100 element array which is what the book is asking for?
also a search on google/this board only reveals type double, does this mean when the book says 'floating-point array' they mean type double?Code:float[] x = {6.8F};
In general, I always use doubles instead of floats. I think that floats are implicitly converted to doubles whenever you call one of the built-in functions that operate on floats. That'll also solve the F thing.
yes i agree the reason i asked was that the question in the Deitel book saysQuote:

i thought it would be a pain to have to write an algorithm just to append the F suffix to each element. i guess i just use double and not worry about itQuote:
