I'm writing a program that creates a maze as a 2d array. I've run into a hiccup, and that is ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. It is pointing to maze[0][0] = "S"
in the drawMaze method. I'm scratching my head at this, I have no idea why it's throwing an error.
import java.util.Random;
public class LA2_MazeSolver {
private int rows;
private int cols;
private String[][] maze = new String[rows][cols];
LA2_MazeInput mi = new LA2_MazeInput();
public void setNumRows(int numRows) {
this.rows = numRows;
}
public void setNumCols(int numCols) {
this.cols = numCols;
}
public int getNumRows() {
return this.rows;
}
public int getNumCols() {
return this.cols;
}
public void drawMaze() {
Random r = new Random();
maze[0][0] = "S";
maze[rows - 1][cols - 1] = "D";
int limit = ((rows * cols) / 3);
for (int i = r.nextInt(limit) + 1; i < limit; i++) {
maze[r.nextInt(rows) - 1][r.nextInt(cols) - 1] = "#";
}
for (int i = 0; i < maze.length; i++) {
for (int c = 0; c < maze[0].length; c++) {
if (!(maze[i][c].matches("#")) && !(maze[i][c].matches("S")) && !(maze[i][c].matches("D"))) {
maze[i][c] = Integer.toString(r.nextInt(100) + 1);
}
}
}
}
public void printMaze() {
}
/*public boolean isSolvable() {
return solveMazeRecursively(this.rows, this.cols);
}
private boolean solveMazeRecursively(int row, int col) {
}*/
public void printResult() {
}
}
In Java, you can't make a definition like private String[][] maze = new String[rows][cols];
outside of the constructor. At that point in the the code, the value for row
and col
have not been defined and so something like private String[][] maze = new String[rows][cols];
won't have well defined behaviour (row
and col
may in fact be 0, who knows).
Try instead something like this:
private int row;
private int col;
private String[][] maze;
public LA2_MazeSolver(int row, int col) {
this.row = row;
this.col = col;
maze = new String[row][col]
}
Now when you create a LA2_MazerSolver
object, you will dynamically create an array of the correct size to use (for example solver = new LA2_MazeSolver(row, col)
).
