How to find the index of an element in an array in Java?
Solution 1:
In this case, you could create e new String from your array of chars and then do an indeoxOf("e") on that String:
System.out.println(new String(list).indexOf("e"));
But in other cases of primitive data types, you'll have to iterate over it.
Solution 2:
Alternatively, you can use Commons Lang ArrayUtils class:
int[] arr = new int{3, 5, 1, 4, 2};
int indexOfTwo = ArrayUtils.indexOf(arr, 2);
There are overloaded variants of indexOf() method for different array types.
