Java - Check if array contains the value

public class Example {

    public static void main(String... args) {

        String[] myArray = new String[6];

        myArray[0] = "USA";
        myArray[1] = "France";
        myArray[2] = "Germany";
        myArray[3] = "Australia";
        myArray[4] = "Japan";
        myArray[5] = "India";

        System.out.println(checkArrayForElement(myArray,"Japan"));
        System.out.println(checkArrayForElement(myArray,"China"));

    }

    public static boolean checkArrayForElement(String[] myArray, String country) {

        for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) {

            if(myArray[i].equals(country)) {
                return true;
            }
        }

        return false;
    }
}

In Example 1, we have an array of Strings and we iterate over the array's length and check with an if the condition that the array contains an element or not using equals() methods. In Example 2 we are making use of for each loop to do the same with an array of integers.
