How do I reverse an int array in Java?

Question

I am trying to reverse an int array in Java.

This method does not reverse the array.

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


        

Answer 1

Using the XOR solution to avoid the temp variable your code should look like

for(int i = 0; i < validData.length; i++){
    validData[i] = validData[i] ^ validData[validData.length - i - 1];
    validData[validData.length - i - 1] = validData[i] ^ validData[validData.length - i - 1];
    validData[i] = validData[i] ^ validData[validData.length - i - 1];
}
