How do I reference an Array element in a List of Arrays?

arrays, java, linked-list

Solution

array.get(0)[index];

That should do the trick.

`array.get(0)` returns an array, all you have to do is add your index after it (no dot to separate).

Just the same way you would use `one[index]`.

Problem

I have created a `LinkedList` of `String` arrays: ``` public static void main(String[] args){ String[] one = new String[10]; String[] two = new String[10]; String[] three = new String[10]; LinkedList<String[]> myList = new LinkedList<String[]>(); myList.add(one); myList.add(two); myList.add(three); } ``` My question is how do I now access an element of one of the arrays. For instance, I can access (or in the example print) the entire array element via: ``` System.out.println(myList.get(0)); ``` But how do i access the first element in the `String` array that is owned by `myList.get(0)`? I tried everything like `myList.get(0).[0]`, but I can't figure out how to access an element in an array, when the array is an element of a linked list.
