I know theres a lot of repetitiveness in the coding…but its because the arrays were retuning null so I got tired of messing with them.
Everything works until it reaches line 224, which returns null values.
nullis a valid value for an array. Both the pointer to the array and the contents in the array may be null. I took the time to read your too-long code. It looks like your code is not filling the arrays completely. For one thing, you do not put anything in slot 0 (questions[0]is always null).Also, your code should be a for loop. And you should allocate the arrays to the number of questions allowed, not a fixed number. This way you will be certain that your arrays have no null elements (assuming JOptionPane doesn’t return null if the user doesn’t enter any value).
