Hi guys, I have tried to creatre a 2 dimensional array and it doesn’t seems to work somehow. Everytime I run this code, my program crashes. The code is as stated below:

var board = new Array();

for ( i = -6; i \<= 12; i++ )  
{   
for ( j = -7; j \<= 14; i++ )  
{  
if ( i \>= 0 && i \<= 6 && j \>= 0 && j \<= 7 )   
board\*[j] = false;   
else  
board\*[j] = true;  
}  
}

So, can anyone help? 🙂

change:

[AS]  
for ( i = -6; i \<= 12; i++ )  
{  
for ( j = -7; j \<= 14; i++ )  
{  
if ( i \>= 0 && i \<= 6 && j \>= 0 && j \<= 7 )  
board\*[j] = false;  
else  
board\*[j] = true;  
}  
}  
[/AS]

to:

[AS]  
for ( i = -6; i \<= 12; i++ )  
{  
for ( j = -7; j \<= 14; j++ )  
{  
if ( i \>= 0 && i \<= 6 && j \>= 0 && j \<= 7 )  
board\*[j] = false;  
else  
board\*[j] = true;  
}  
}

[/AS]

look at the different 🙂

bad: for ( j = -7; j \<= 14; i++ )  
good: for ( j = -7; j \<= 14; j++ )

now it works fine

Oh, ok. It’s just a typo. Silly me. Thanks anyway.
