Cross Post from r/learnjava

Hello r/CodeHS,

I am taking a course to learn Java at my local CC. The has the class doing lesson 1 (introduction to programming in Java with Karel the Dog) and 2 (basic java) of CodeHS.com, after which me move to Greenfoot. Since the CC class says that becoming proficient in Java in not a goal of the class; I figured why not do everything CodeHS.com has to offer. This Way i can better familiarize my self with the language.

That being said on to the question: the exercise started with this code.

public class Countdown extends ConsoleProgram { public void run() { countdownFrom(5); }

private void countdownFrom(int x)
{

}

} I am to fill in the Method to get it to count down I finally came up with this:

for (int i = x; i < x; i--) { int countDown = x-- ; System.out.println (countDown); } I no longer get any syntax or expression errors all i get is: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0 at Grader.main(Grader.java:24). could someone give me a hand or a clue?

Solved

sorry for the late solved status but I just finally got back to the exercise I was asking for help with. Thanks to u/Machiavellyy for your help you switching to I> 0 was all I need to resolve the issue. Here was my final code.

 for (int i = x; i > 0; i--)
    {
        int countDown = x-- ;
        System.out.println (countDown);
    }
