08:35 pm - banana - Looping backwards I just came across a nice syntactic trick for looping backwards over an array:public class Decr { public static void main( String[] args ) { char[] array = { 'a', 'b', 'c' }; // Traditional way for ( int i = array.length - 1; i >= 0; i-- ) { System.out.println( array[ i ] ); } // "Start at the end, i goes to zero" for ( int i = array.length; i --> 0; ) { System.out.println( array[ i ] ); } } } It might look as if I invented an operator, but i --> 0 would normally be written as i-- > 0BTW, what happened to java_dev? It used to be lively here, but no one posts any more. Did all the Java developers leave LJ?
