Re: [OT] Java Trivia

months appears to be an array of strings, and arrays have a .length 
property

Here's my code - it compiles just fine.  Note the string.length in the 
for{}

test = st.nextToken();

  for( int i = 0; i < months.length; i++ ) {

    if( test.equals( months[ i ] )){

for( int i = 0; i < string.length; i++ ) {}

doesn't compile for me...

Anybody know why the length of a String is a property of the
String when
used as a logical qualifier in a for{} block but a function
of the String in
a conditional if{} statement?
for( int i = 0; i < string.length; i++ ) {}

if( string.length() != 4 ) {}
