ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException Help

[latooka]

I am receiving an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException error while I run the below code.

static String sRomans[] = {"I","V","X","L","C","D","M"};
static int iRomans[] = {1,5,10,50,100,500,1000};
while (pos <= s.length()) {
                chr = s.substring(pos, 1);
                p1 = Arrays.asList(sRomans).indexOf(chr);
                subSum += iRomans[p1];
                if(pos != s.length()) {
                    nextChr = s.substring(pos + 1, 1);
                    p2 = Arrays.asList(sRomans).indexOf(nextChr);
                    if (p1 == p2){
                        pos++;
                    }
                    else {
                        Arabic += subSum;
                        subSum = 0;
                        pos++;
                    }
                }
                else {
                    Arabic += subSum;
                    pos++;
                }
            }

The exception is thrown on this line:

subSum += iRomans[p1];

If I remove the follwing code from the loop everything runs like expected.

chr = s.substring(pos, 1);
p1 = Arrays.asList(sRomans).indexOf(chr);
subSum += iRomans[p1];

Any help and/or ideas are greatly appreciated.

Array indexes start at 0 and end at (length - 1). Not at (length).

And please don't flatter yourself that this is an advanced question. I'm moving the thread to New to Java.

Also, you appear to have abandoned the last thread you started. Not the best way to continue to get free help on a forum, that.
