Check if an array contains an element java
import java.util.Arrays; // For String String[] array = {"Boto", "Nesto", "Lepta"}; String toSearch = "Nesto"; // Inline if (Arrays.toString(array).contains(toSearch)) { // Do something if it's found } // Multi line String strArray = Array.toString(array); if (strArray.contains(toSearch)) { // Do your thing } // Different elements int[] numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0}; int number = 5; String checker = Arrays.toString(numbers); // The toString of int in some cases can happen without explicitly saying so // In this example we convert both if (checker.contains(Integer.toString(number)) { // Found. }
