NullPointer exception 2D Arrays Class

Question

I have two classes, MainActivity and HjorthClass.

I have a nullpointer exception which I believe is coming from my arrays, but I cannot figure out where the error is.

Please direct your attention to TestSeizureDetected() in MainActivity. This issue occurs when I push a button that calls that method. I did not include String huge, because it includes 7681 separate numbers.

The basic format format of

String huge = "1.3870574e+01   2.0512821e+01   3.8485958e+01   4.9816850e+01   6.7789988e+01   6.7789988e+01   6.5836386e+01   7.7557998e+01   8.2246642e+01"

Please see below MainActivity, HjorthClass, and the relevant LogCat when the error appears.

Answer 1

It looks like you are setting finalSeizureData (a double array) to covert (a single array). i.e. new double[7681][1] = new double[temp.length]. So I think your variable finalSeizureData will always contain 1 single array. You are not setting the arrays properly. I might have to write a quick test case...

Answer 2

Before trying to access any values inside d1,d2,m0 or threshold arrays you should initialize them. I can be mistaken regarding the needed size, but you can try the following

public HjorthClass (double [][]Active)
{
    height = Active[0].length;
    width = Active[1].length;
    d1 = new double[height][width];
    d2 = new double[height][width];
....

But you also may want to use ArrayList<ArrayList<Double>> for keeping the data if you don't know the size of structure you'll be working with.

Answer 3

you don't initialize d1 and d2, you need initialize that before using on HjorthClass
