Java variable number of arguments for a method

by

That’s correct. You can find more about it in the Oracle guide on varargs.

Here’s an example:

void foo(String... args) {
    for (String arg : args) {
        System.out.println(arg);
    }
}

which can be called as

foo("foo"); // Single arg.
foo("foo", "bar"); // Multiple args.
foo("foo", "bar", "lol"); // Don't matter how many!
foo(new String[] { "foo", "bar" }); // Arrays are also accepted.
foo(); // And even no args.
