//remember how to declare an array with space for 10 integers
int[] moreNums = new int[10];

//Declare one dog whose name is Gypsy who is 3 years old
//Write code that changes Gypsy's name to Gypsy Belle.

//Write a statement to print Gypsy's personYears


//reserve space for 10 references to Dog objects called myDogs
//this is just like declaring 10 integers except the data type is Dog instead of int
//note this does NOT actually create the objects
//each one must be instantiated separately

//instantiate a new object for JoJo age 2 in the first array slot


//take off the comments and see that this won't work since the object hasn't been created at index 1
//myDogs[1].setName("Karma");


//but this will
//JoJo had a birthday
//myDogs[0].setAge(3);
//System.out.println(myDogs[0]);

} //end main
