Some easy java help required

Question

Kay
Say for example i had:
public int[] i d= new int[3];
{code}And i[0] was set to 3, i[1] was set to 5, i[2] was set to 4, and i[3] was set to 1.
Basically in easier terms:
{code:java}
i[0] = 3;
i[1] = 5;
i[2] = 4;
i[3] = 1;
{code}Right, how would i make an alternative int like this:
{code:java}
int highestNumber = (*);
{code}Basically i want (*) to select the biggest integer out of the i[] int. So in that case i would want it to automatically select i[1] as it has the largest amount, that's what i need help with.
*ALSO*
How could i reset all of those int's to 0 in one easy code?
Thanks.

Can you tell me why that wouldn't work? Or what alternative method i can use to make something with the same function?You create an array of 3 elements but try to put 4 elements there.
And also.

int getMaximalItem(int []array) [

Thanks.Create a method like:
public void setToZeros(int []array) {
   // implementation goes here
}Put some effort into this task and then ask specific questions if somethings are still not working.
