**`isSameType`** is a static method of the `ArrayUtils` class that checks whether two arrays are of the same type, considering multi-dimensional arrays.

# 
#  Add apache commons-lang package

**`ArrayUtils`** is defined in the Apache Commons Lang package. Apache Commons Lang can be added to the Maven project by adding the following dependency to the `pom.xml` file.

---
```xml
<dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
            <artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
            <version>3.12.0</version>
</dependency>
```
---

> For other versions of the commons-lang package, refer to the  [Maven Repository](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.commons/commons-lang3).

##
## Importing `ArrayUtils`

You can import the `ArrayUtils` class as follows:

---
```java
import org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils;
```

# 
#  Syntax

``` java
public static boolean isSameType(final Object array1, final Object array2)
```

# 
## Parameters

* **`final Object array1`**: first array

* **`final Object array2`**: second array

##
## Returns

This method returns `true` if the two arrays are of same type, and returns `false` otherwise.

# 
## Code
## 
##  Example 1

* `array1 = new int[]{1,2,3,4,5}`
* `array2 = new int[]{1,2,3}`

Applying the `isSameType` function will result in `true`, as the two arrays are of the same type.

###
### Example 2

* `array1 = new int[]{1,2,3,4,5}`
* `array2 = new char[]{'a','b','v'}`

Applying the `isSameType` function will result in `false`, as the two arrays are of different types.

import org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[] array = new int[]{1,2,3,4,5,2,3,2,2,4};
        char[] array2 = new char[]{'a', 's', 'f'};
        boolean check = ArrayUtils.isSameType(array, array2);
        System.out.println("int array and boolean array2 are of same type - " + check);
        check = ArrayUtils.isSameType(array, array);
        System.out.println("int array and int array are of same type - " + check);
    }
}

# 
## Output

---
```
int array and boolean array2 are of same type - false
int array and int array are of same type - true
```
