       	    int array_variable [] = new int[10];

```
	    for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
```

                array_variable[i] = i/2;

```
                array_variable[i]++;
```

                System.out.print(array_variable[i] + " ");

```
                i++;
```

output:

$ javac array_output.java
$ java array_output
1 2 3 4 5
