What is wrong with the way I have initialized 'temps'?

Question

public class ArrayMethod {

    static int[] temps;

    public static void create() {
         temps = {28, 27, 28, 21, 21, 19, 18, 29, 31, 24};

    }
}

I am required to use 'temps' in other methods but am getting a variety of errors.

Answer 1

to initialize array, use

temps = new int[] {...};

Answer 2

initialize your array as below. The way you are using would give compile time error because array constants can only be used in initializers

temps = new int[]{28, 27, 28, 21, 21, 19, 18, 29, 31, 24};
