Convert an Array of Strings to a List

The java.util.Arrays class has an asList method to convert the argument array into a list. This will be handy when there are large amounts of information that you need to enumerate.

import java.util.Arrays;import java.util.List;public class ConvertArrayToList{    public static void main(String args[])   {      ConvertArrayToList convertArrayToList = new ConvertArrayToList();      convertArrayToList.proceed();   }      private void proceed()   {      //String array containing the week days      String daysOfWeek[] =  {"Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"};      List listOfWeekDays =  Arrays.asList(daysOfWeek); //method to convert into a list      System.out.println("Week days: "+listOfWeekDays);   }}/*

Expected output:

[root@mypc]# java ConvertArrayToListWeek days: [Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday]*/
