Why am i getting an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException message upon execution?

Question

Could someone tell me why am I getting an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException message upon execution?

Answer 1

Suppose you have an integer array of 10 elements indexed from 0...9. When you try to refer or call for the 10th index, an ArrayIndexOutofBoundsException is thrown. This means that the index number that you are calling for doesn't contain anything and is 'out of bounds' for the integer array. You can resolve this error by using throw and catch for this specific condition or binding the iterative variables and limiting them to remain within the array length limits.
