class x{
public static void main(String[] args){
    String x="<html><head></head></html>";
    String arr[]=x.split("<head>");
    String script="hi";
    x=arr[0]+"<head>"+script+arr[1];
    System.out.println(x);
}

}

the above code when compiled as a java file compiles fine but when used a s a groovy file spits the error :

It works if you move the [] to the String side like so:

String[] arr = x.split("<head>");
