Here's my answer for APCSA exam 2014 FRQ #1. My result turned out to be some random thing for some reason. I'm not sure what's the cause of this. What does this output mean?

It means an array of Strings cannot be printed like that.  What is being printed is the reference value of the array.  If you want to output the actual Strings, use a loop to print each element.
