In Java this colon ':' character means "for each".In int t : primes. t stores the next element of the primes array if it exists each times the loop runs.

That is short form version of for loop used to traverse array.. It's don't require to mention array length.. int primes[] ={2,3,5,7,11,13}; for(int i : primes) System.out.println(i); Its is used for iterables like Arrays, strings, lists... Edit: in java, pls mention or tag the language
