title: Android String Initialisation
body: <p>I have a query about strings.  </p>
  
  <p>I'm declaring my string array as:</p>
  
  <pre><code>private static String[] name;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm then trying to add a string to it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>name[0] = temp    // Where temp as another string
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am getting a nullpointer error with the above code.  Am I initialising my string array correctly?</p>
