In the for each loop how does the program know what the value of "jackson" is?

So looking at the video, it looks like jacksons is an array of strings. Like this:

String[] jacksons = {"Michael", "Jackie", "Tito", "Jermaine", "Marlon", "Randy"};

Each of those elements in jacksons is a string.

//for each string in the array jacksons
for (String jackson : jacksons) {

//print to the console the value of jackson
console.printf("%s Jackson %n", jackson);

}

In the above code, when you write

for (String jackson : jacksons) 

the for each loop reads the first element from the array, and sets that value to the variable named "jackson". The first time the for each loop runs the jackson variable will be set to "Michael". Then, the console.printf line prints out the name Michael Jackson. The second time, the jackson variable will be set to "Jackie, and so Jackie Johnson will be printed to the console. And so on, until the end of the array.

Hope this helps!

Ha!!!! I figured it out... epic brain fart!
