This is just a little bit of my code, but I am trying to loop through two strings, get the value of the first number in one string, and then use that number as the position to find in the other string, then add that word into a new string. But it comes up with the error "String cannot be converted to int" can anyone help?
String result = "";
for (int i = 0; i < wordPositions.length; i++){
result += singleWords[wordPositions[i]];
}
Use this to convert String into int
Integer.parseInt(integerString);
The completed line of code:
result += singleWords[Integer.parseInt(wordPositions[i])];
if your wordPositions is a String array when you do this:
result += singleWords[wordPositions[i]];
it like if you does this
result += singleWords["value of the wordPositions array at index i"];
but is need to be an int in [] not a string that why you have the exception String can not be cast to Int
If wordPositions is an array of numbers inside a string for example
String[] wordPositions = new String[]{"1","2","3"};
Then you nees to use
Integer.parseInt(NUMBER_IN_STRING);
To change the string value to an int value.
