Typed arrays in TypeScript - what is the difference between Array<Foo> and Foo[]?

Question

In TypeScript I have a class Foo

class Foo {}

I want array of instances of Foo. What is the difference between

var foos : Array<Foo>;

and

var foos : Foo[];

It seems to me that both define array of instances of given type, is there any difference at all?

EDIT: What are the names of these constructs? How do I correctly refer to them?

Answer 1

They are both identical as type annotations, so you can use whichever you prefer.

The Array syntax has only been available since generics were added.
