[java] How to find index of STRING array in Java from a given value?

I wanted to know if there's a native method in array for Java to get the index of the table for a given value ?

Let's say my table contains these strings :

public static final String[] TYPES = {
        "Sedan",
        "Compact",
        "Roadster",
        "Minivan",
        "SUV",
        "Convertible",
        "Cargo",
        "Others"
    };

Let's say the user has to enter the type of car and that then in the background the program takes that string and get's it's position in the array.

So if the person enters : Sedan It should take the position 0 and store's it in the object of Cars created by my program ...

This question is related to java arrays string position

The answer is


Type in:

Arrays.asList(TYPES).indexOf("Sedan");
