How to Insert elements into one array

[zlich]

i have a text message: M 3 r ! a 1 o t 0 v h space e space P s = 16 characters.
I want to insert this message into an integer array with 20 length, with additional four null = 0 characters.
Then the result that i want is: M 3 r ! a 1 o null t 0 v null h space e null space P s null = 20 characters.

I have tried many ways to resolve this problem. Please help me....
thanks before.

So post what you've tried and ask a specific question about your code. We're not mind readers, you know. No one's going to do the whole thing for you.

        //insert 0
        int nol = (kolom * baris) - tempChiper.length();
        int []temp = new int [tempChiper.length() + nol]; //integer array
        int []pos = new int [nol];
        int j = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < chiperBlock.length; i++) { // get 0 positions
            if (chiperBlock[i] == 0) {
                pos[j] = i;   // contain index of null value
                j++;          
            }
        }
        
        int z = 0;
        for (int l = 0; l < nol; l++){
            for (int i = 0; i < pos[l]; i++) {
                temp[i] = tempChiper.charAt(i);
                temp[pos[l]] = 0;
            }
            for (int k = pos[l]; k < pos[l+1]; k++) {
                temp[k + 1] = tempChiper.charAt(k);                
                //temp[k] = tempChiper.charAt(k);
            }
            z++;
        }

Sorry, this is what i have done....

the question is: how to insert text (temChiper) into an integer array (temp[]) with null value (0) at spesific index (pos[])?

And your question is? Does the code compile? Does it show required output? If not, what's the required output and how does yours differ? What specific parts are you having trouble with?

yes, it is compiled. but the output
tempPlain: M3r!a1ot0vh e Ps
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 16

my required out put is:
M 3 r ! a 1 o 0 t 0 v 0 h e 0 P s 0

The error indicates that the specific index is greater than the size of the array.

Old string, 14 chars.

M3r!a1ot0vhePs

New (output) string, >14 chars.

M3r!a1o0t0v0he0Ps0

I'm guessing the four 0's are what you want to insert?

Am I completely misunderstanding you, or do you want to insert new values into an existing array, making it larger?

Since the code in your last post doesn't compile on its own, I'm unable to run it.

do you want to insert new values into an existing array, making it larger?

I want to insert text

M3r!a1ot0vhePs

into an existing integer array (temp[]). and making it larger with insert new values (0).
and in the array I want to paste the value 0 at a particular index.

I'm guessing the four 0's are what you want to insert?

that's right. at a particular index.

Since the code in your last post doesn't compile on its own, I'm unable to run it.

the code is a part of my project. so you can't compile it separately.

k ..whats kolom and baris?..i can say tempchiper is the string.
cant help too much becaue complete code is not shown..but i can help.

for (int l = 0; l < nol; l++){
            for (int i = 0; i < pos[l]; i++) {
                temp[i] = tempChiper.charAt(i);
                temp[pos[l]] = 0;
            }

over here dnt u think its strange..

the 1st line inside the 2nd for loop adds the characters to the array.
but in the 2nd line your replacing them with zeroes.
partially filled array data structure will act as a perfect data structure over here.

int nol = (kolom * baris) - tempChiper.length();

I use it for array size

int []pos = new int [nol];

I use 2 loops for:
1. of index 0 found

for (int l = 0; l < nol; l++)

2. to fill an array of values between the index and index +1 for

(int i = 0; i < pos[l]; i++)

you think, how should be?
