why am i getting a null pointer when converting string to int array?
- by Sackling
My main method:
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
String string1;
string1 = input.next();
LargeInteger firstInt = new LargeInteger(string1);
System.out.printf("First integer: %s \n", firstInt.display());
}
LargeInteger class:
public class LargeInteger {
private int[] intArray;
//convert the strings to array
public LargeInteger(String s) {
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
intArray[i] = Character.digit(s.charAt(i), 10); // in base 10
}
}
//display the strings
public String display() {
String result = "";
for (int i = 0; i < intArray.length; i++) {
result += intArray[i];
}
return result.toString();
}
}
