What does a ResultSet object look like?

Is it like an array or is it like a database/excel table ? Or something else ?

I think the best way to know that is to look at the javadoc here

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html

In the javadoc you have code sample to get and use such objects.

Taken from javadocs:

A table of data representing a database result set, which is usually generated by executing a statement that queries the database.

It is JDBC driver dependant, ResultSet is just an interface. But in principle the closest you can get is an Iterator. ResultSet gives you one result at a time and allows to query whether there are any more results. Theoretically ResultSet can fetch one record at a time as well.
