Difference between int[] array and int array[]

Question

I have recently been thinking about the difference between the two ways of defining an array:

1. int[] array
2. int array[]
<

Answer 1

There is one slight difference, if you happen to declare more than one variable in the same declaration:

int[] a, b;  // Both a and b are arrays of type int
int c[], d;  // WARNING: c is an array, but d is just a regular int

Note that this is bad coding style, although the compiler will almost certainly catch your error the moment you try to use d.
