public static int indexOf(short[] array, short target)

Parameters: The method accepts two parameters:

array: which is the integer array in which the target array is to checked for index.
target: which is the value to be searched for as an element in the specified array.

Return Value: The method returns an integer value as follows:

It returns the position of first occurrence of the target if the target exists in the array.
Else it returns -1 if the target does not exist in the array.

Exceptions: The method does not throw any exception.

Below examples illustrate the implementation of above method:

Example 1:

// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.indexOf(short[] array,
// short target) method
  
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Creating an short array
        short[] arr = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 5 };
  
        short target = 3;
  
        System.out.println("Array: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr));
  
        System.out.println("Target: " + target);
  
        // Using Shorts.indexOf(short[] array, short target)
        // method to get the position of the first
        // occurrence of the specified target within array,
        // or -1 if there is no such occurrence.
        int index = Shorts.indexOf(arr, target);
  
        if (index != -1) {
            System.out.println("Target is present at index "
                               + index);
        }
        else {
            System.out.println("Target is not present "
                               + "in the array");
        }
    }
}

Output:

Array: [1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 5]
Target: 3
Target is present at index 2

Example 2:

// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.indexOf(short[] array,
// short target) method
  
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;
  
class GFG {
  
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // Creating an short array
        short[] arr = { 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 };
  
        short target = 23;
  
        System.out.println("Array: "
                           + Arrays.toString(arr));
  
        System.out.println("Target: " + target);
  
        // Using Shorts.indexOf(short[] array, short target)
        // method to get the start position of the first
        // occurrence of the specified target within array,
        // or -1 if there is no such occurrence.
        int index = Shorts.indexOf(arr, target);
  
        if (index != -1) {
            System.out.println("Target is present at index "
                               + index);
        }
        else {
            System.out.println("Target is not present"
                               + " in the array");
        }
    }
}

Output:

Array: [3, 5, 7, 11, 13]
Target: 23
Target is not present in the array
