I have an array like so:
String[] articles = {"a", "and", "the"};
And I want to know how to get the array index from a certain term. Is there a method along the lines of articles.getIndex("the"); and it will return an int (in this case, 2)?

You can create List wrapping your array and use its indexOf method
Arrays.asList(yourArray).indexOf(element)

You can also write method for that
public int indexByValue(String data, String[] array) {
int index = -1;
for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
if (array[i].equals(data)) index = i;
return index;
}
