In my game's code, I am trying to add a card to hand. As soon as I do, my array is out of bounds. Everything looks right, but maybe I'm missing something.
FYI, one and two are Player instances. Relevant code from Main class (sorry about the formatting. i suck at transferring it to Stack Overflow):
import java.util.*;
public class Program {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String[] rank = {"two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven", "eight",
"nine", "ten", "jack", "queen", "king", "ace"};
String[] suit = {"hearts", "diamonds", "spades", "clubs"};
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
String something = "yes", something2 = "yes"; //Use with while loop
String winner = "yes"; //Use for while loop
String temp; //Use with setting names
Card[] deck = new Card[52]; //Deck array
int playercount = 0;
Player one = new Player("temp");
Player two = new Player("temp");
Player three = new Player("temp");
Player four = new Player("temp");
while (something2.equals("yes") || playercount < 2) { //Add players to game
System.out.println("Would a(nother) player like to join?");
something2 = scan.nextLine();
System.out.println();
if (something2.equals("yes")) {
if (playercount <= 4) {
if (playercount == 0) {
System.out.println("What is your name: ");
Player one1 = new Player(scan.nextLine());
one = one1;
playercount++;
System.out.println();
}
else if (playercount == 1) {
System.out.println("What is your name: ");
Player two2 = new Player(scan.nextLine());
two = two2;
playercount++;
System.out.println();
}
else if (playercount == 2) {
System.out.println("What is your name: ");
Player three3 = new Player(scan.nextLine());
three = three3;
playercount++;
System.out.println();
}
else if (playercount == 3) {
System.out.println("What is your name: ");
Player four4 = new Player(scan.nextLine());
four = four4;
playercount++;
System.out.println();
}
else {System.out.println("Only four players are allowed.");
something2 = "no";}
}
}
else if (playercount < 2) {
System.out.println("You need at least two players...");
System.out.println();
}
else something2 = "no";
}
//Start game
while (something.equals("yes")) {
//Prepare game
Card.makeDeck(deck, rank, suit);
deck = Card.getDeck();
Card.shuffle(deck);
deck = Card.getDeck();
//Deal cards
if (playercount == 2) {
for (int i = 1; i < 8; i++) {
one.addCard(Card.draw(deck));
deck = Card.getDeck();

deck = Card.getDeck();

deck = Card.getDeck();
two.addCard(Card.draw(deck));
deck = Card.getDeck();

deck = Card.getDeck();

The problem is with your loop
There's nothing that sets
something
to any other value, so this loop just goes around endlessly, until all the players have more than 52 cards. Once someone has more than 52 cards, adding a new card causes the exception.I think you need to remove this
while
. The code inside it should only be run once.Your draw method is broken.
I think the order of your code is incorrect (hard to tell with this code)
maybe should be
Update
Also
handsize
is never incremented - it is always 0
