Q1.
Can we declare an array without assigning the size of an array?
Core Java
Ans. No, It will throw compile time error saying "must provide either dimension expressions or an array initializer"
Alternatively we can provide array initializer like
String[] strArray = new String[]{"Buggy","Bread"};
which will initialize it to size 2 with values as "Buggy" and "Bread"
