Trouble with reading csv into object array

[shaunstruwig]

Hi there,
I am trying to read a csv file into an array (of objects) and then display everything in the array.. I can't seem to find what the problem is.

here is my code:

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Scanner;


public class Control {
	
	static Model[] m;

	public static void readFromText() throws IOException{
		
	int counter=0;
	String line;
	BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader (new FileReader("studentcard.csv"));
	line = br.readLine();

	int a = countRows();
	
	
	 Model[] m = new Model [100];
		
		while (line!=null){
			String temp[];
			temp=line.split(",");
			
			m [counter]= new Model (temp[0], temp[1], Integer.parseInt(temp[2]));
			
		
		line=br.readLine();
			counter ++;
		}
			}
	
	public static String listArray(){

		String s="";

		for(int i=0;i<3;i++){
			s+=m[i].toString()+"\n";
		}

		return s;
	}
	
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
	readFromText();
	listArray();
}
}

I get these errors:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at Control.listArray(Control.java:55)
at Control.main(Control.java:63)

Thanks

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at Control.listArray(Control.java:55)

There is a variable at line 55 with a null value that is being used to reference an object. Look at that line and find the variable with the null value and then backtrack in the code to see why it does not have a non-null value.
