I made a little change to your programme with an aditional int variable:
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class OwnJavaArray {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
int counter,max=0;
String[][] nameArrayForPerson= new String[3][2];
int[] lengthOfFirstNameOfPerson=new int[3];
int maxIndex = 0;
for(counter=0;counter<=2;counter++)
{
nameArrayForPerson[counter]=(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your full
name giving space between them").split(" "));
lengthOfFirstNameOfPerson[counter]=nameArrayForPerson[counter][0].length();
}
for(counter=0;counter<3;counter++)
{
if(lengthOfFirstNameOfPerson[counter] > max){
max = lengthOfFirstNameOfPerson[counter];
maxIndex = counter;
}
}
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,nameArrayForPerson[maxIndex][0] + " has
longest first name");
}
}
