how to fix it?

Question

i am trting to convert an array into an ArrayList and check if a certain number is in the arrayList.
the code isnt working as it supposed to be, it prints out Gibberish and not the actual numbers. i tried using toString, parseInt and all of that and it still not working.

code:

import java.util.*;
public class Main
{
public static void main(String[] args) {

int[] find7 = {3 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 3};

List arrL = Arrays.asList(find7);

System.out.println(arrL);

String contains7 = arrL.contains(7) ? "Boom!" : "";
System.out.println(contains7);

}

}

Answer 1

Integer[] find7 = {3 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 3};

List<Integer>arrL = Arrays.asList(find7);

I no nothing about Java ,but there is discussion on stackoverflow i came across ,I cudn't understand anything much but hopefully it helps you somehow

This will not work. asList() does not convert primitives into their wrapper classes (autoboxing).

Short: asList() works only for objects.

This article gives some examples what you can do with primitives:
