Help with java program crashing when certain boolean types are entered
Hi all, I am a new A level computer science student and am currently struggling with a piece of code that I have written. That code is as follows:
Code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Question5{
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
Boolean cont = true;
String actanswer = "RANDOM";
System.out.println("I am thinking of a 6 letter word. Start guessing!");
while(cont == true){
System.out.println("Please enter your guess: ");
String crntguesslower = sc.nextLine();
String crntguess = crntguesslower.toUpperCase();
String[] parts = crntguess.split("");
String part1 = parts[0];
String part2 = parts[1];
String part3 = parts[2];
String part4 = parts[3];
String part5 = parts[4];
String part6 = parts[5];
char letter1 = 'a';
char letter2 = 'b';
char letter3 = 'c';
char letter4 = 'd';
char letter5 = 'e';
char letter6 = 'f';
switch (part1){
case "R": letter1 = 'R';
break;
default: letter1 = '?';
}
switch (part2){
case "A": letter2 = 'A';
break;
default: letter2 = '?';
}
switch (part3){
case "N": letter3 = 'N';
break;
default: letter3 = '?';
}
switch (part4){
case "D": letter4 = 'D';
break;
default: letter4 = '?';
}
switch (part5){
case "O": letter5 = 'O';
break;
default: letter5 = '?';
}
switch (part6){
case "M": letter6 = 'M';
break;
default: letter6 = '?';
}
System.out.println("Result: " + letter1 + letter2 + letter3 + letter4 + letter5 + letter6);
String answercheck = crntguess;
switch(answercheck){
case "RANDOM": System.out.println("Congratulations, you have guessed correctly! Would you like to continue? True/False");
break;
default: System.out.println("Sorry, you have not yet guessed correctly, would you like to try again? True/False");
}
cont = sc.nextBoolean();
}
}
}
My issue is that every time the user types 'True' to continue and guess again, the program crashes with the error:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1
at Question5.main(Question5.java:14)
Any help at all with fixing this would be greatly appreciated.
