Java Strings Type Array or Simple String usage

i am beginner in java and want to ask a basic question

While reading Strings and Arrays i came to see sometimes we use String Type Arras like this

String   Words[]={"first ", "Second"..};
String  words="These are sample words"; 

and some more ways to declare it . I want to ask that what is the basic difference between the two mentioned Strings .. i mean why we need to declare String Type Array instead of String obj= ..; etc . Can someone please explain

Please declare var with lowerCamelCase.

String [] wordsArray = {"first", "Second"..};
String  words = "These are sample words";

The first line declares and initializes an array of String objects, while the second one, once you fix the compilation error (Strings should be String) declares and initializes a single String.

Strings  words="These are sample words"; 

doesn't compile. There is no Strings type available in java.

You might be referring

String  words="These are sample words"; 

The difference between above and array is, above is single String. String[] will be used to store multiple *String*s
