In activity A:

String[] abc;

Bundle bundle =new Bundle();
bundle.putStringArray("some string",abc);

In Activity B where you want to get give the code as:

String abcd[]=bundle.getStringArray("some string");

"some string" should be same in both case.

At the sender side, the code should be:

String[] myStrings=new String[2];
myStrings[0]="MONDAY";
myStrings[1]="TUESDAY";
Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Animation_program.class);
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
intent.putExtra("strings", myStrings);
intent.putExtras(bundle);               
startActivity(intent);

At the reciever side, the code should be:

Intent i = getIntent();
Bundle extras=i.getExtras();

if(extras != null)  //this line is necessary for getting any value
{
    String[] fajr_Values = i.getStringArrayExtra("strings");
    Toast.makeText(this, "value="+fajr_Values[0]+""+fajr_Values[1], Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

I have never passed an array using a bundle, and I do not know off the top of my head if it can be done, but you can certainly pass an ArrayList (or anything Serializable/Parcelable). See this question for a more complete answer:

Code for pass String And Integer value ::

In Your First Activity ::

Intent intent = new Intent(California.this,details.class);
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("Keyname1", StringValue);
bundle.putInt("Keyname2", IntegerValue);
intent.putExtras(bundle);
startActivity(intent);

In Second Activity :

Bundle b=this.getIntent().getExtras();
String s=b.getString("Keyname1");
int i=b.getInt("Keyname2");
