I am still struggling with understanding the creation of objects.
For example.
int[] x = {4,5,6};
int[] y = new int[x.Length];
Why is it that for the first array, we can initialize it without the use of the new keyword yet in the second line, we need the new keyword?
Whats the difference?
Thanks so much.

Do you have a book to refer back to.
I'm not a programmer. My attitude starts with ignorance, holds steady at conversation, and ends with a trip to the hospital. Get used to it.

I think I got it. One creates an instance and fills it.
The other creates it but leaves it empty and with a size. I guess if we are just going to create it, we need the extra step but if we initialize it and fill it, we can short circuit it.

Yep. Thats right. Its easy to initialize the array. It is sometimes a pain in the butt to fill it with objects though. You have to create a loop to intialize the individual values (or use the brackets for simple data types.) But you know all this now.
