Difference between String[] and Array<String>

I'm new to Java and I can't figure out what the difference between String[] and Array<String> is. And how do I actually count how many entries a String[] Array has? Thanks!

String[] - is an array

Array - is a part of reflection API which you shouldn't bother about until you get more experience in java.

String[] a = new String[length]; - is a proper instantiation of array

a.length - returns length of the array

Main difference: String[] is not resizable.

Length of String[]: use .length property.
