title: passing arrays to a constructor
body: <p>I have to write two files for an assignment, a client file that will receive two sets of data from the user.  The first set is a list of applicant ID's (int) and the second set is either  y or n (char).  The sets of data need to be entered into two arrays.
  I then have to create a class file that will receive these two arrays into a constructor which will then run through some specific methods to validate if the answers are correct, how many answered correctly and finally which candidates received the most correct answers.</p>
  
  <p>I just have two questions:</p>
  
  <p>1st - the first line of data that will be entered into the second array will be the answer key.  Is it possible to add a 0 to the beginning of the applicant ID's array so that the two arrays will match (ID#{1} to answer{1}, etc)?</p>
  
  <p>2nd - with the calling of my class file from my client file do I declare the array's in both?
  i.e.:</p>
  
  <p>client file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>int[] id = new int[];
  char[] answer = new char[];
  ValidateMark importClerk = new ValidateMark(id, answer);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>class constructor:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public ValidateMark(int number[], char marks[])
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
