What this declarations means with array

[Krystian Wie]

class Corn {
        private int cornCount;

        public Corn(int cornCount) {
        this.cornCount = cornCount;

    }

    Popcorn[] makePopcorn() {
            return new Popcorn[(int) (Math.random() * (cornCount))];


    }
}

I do not udnerstand this line:

Popcorn[] makePopcorn()

You declare array Popcorn and method? How?
Thank you

Welcome to the Ranch

I don't like arithmetic with Math#random(). Look at this thread. It may have more links to older threads which will be useful.
The method declaration tells you the name of the method, and that it returns an array of popcorn. What it doesn't tell you is that the array will be full of nulls because it has never been populated. Where does that method come from?

Nope, that method supposed to return a Popcorn array of particular length.

Somewhere a class named Popcorn must be defined.
