I have figured out how to return the largest integer of my array.

int[] a = new int[] { 2, 22, 4, 6745, 45, 999, 1000, 1, 5747, 454 };

public int method(int[] a) { 
  int max = Arrays.stream(a).max().getAsInt();
  return max;
}

However, I still did not find a way to reutnr the largest TWO integers. Could you help my out? I am still a beginner, so make it simple pls :)

I tried them all before, unfortunately, neither of those answers worked properly :l – user7585069 Feb 18 '17 at 12:57
I can assure you that [Peter Lawrey's answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/16385929/3788176) works. – Andy Turner Feb 18 '17 at 13:06
For some reason, it only returns "[I@2a139a55" though? – user7585069 Feb 18 '17 at 13:28
