Passing an array to another class in a JFrame

[Fubarable]

Well, walk through what your current code does:

• A user enters a number into the number JTextField
• The user then presses the jbtEnter JButton
• This calls the EnterListener's actionPerformed method
• This loops a bit less than 50 times (your for loop is bad in that you increment the counter variable, i, inside of the loop, something that you should almost never do).
• In the for loop, you get the String held by the number JTextField, convert it to an int, and add it into an ArrayList<Integer>, and again, you do this *many* times in a row, about 25 times.

This is what i'm asking you -- do you want to add the same number into the ArrayList 25 times? If not, get rid of that for loop.

I did erase the for loop

Good, but the message is the same: walk through your code mentally to figure out what it's doing each step of the way.

You're welcome. So you've got things solved now? If you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Not complete yet. Still having some issues with the loop to make it stop at 50 but working on it.

Any advice on the loop portion to stop at 50?

Sure -- check the size of the ArrayList (it has a method to let you do that), and not accept any more input if the size is 50 or above.
