# not those vectors
in java vectors are dynamic data structures
(I helped save b3ta! ChaosTime The Fucking Moon Lord, Tue 20 Apr 2004, 1:27, archived)
# sounds similar to
std vector in c++, what is the question?

i) in your driver class create a new Vector, and use it to store the two instances of the Politican calss you created in quesation 1


the two instances are called politician1 and politician2
i tried using myVector.add(politician1); but it errored and so did myVector.addElement(blah);

#
have you called new on the vector?

Vector v;
v = new Vector();
v.addElement(politician1);

# yeah
Vector myVector = new Vector();
myVector.addElement(politician1);

no

# sommit like dis?
Vector myVector = new Vector();
myVector.add(politican1);
myVector.add(politican2);

inside the Vector, they are stored as nameless Objects to get them back, u need to use casting, and assign to new
variables

Politican pol1, pol2;
pol1 = (Politican)myVector.get(0);
pol2 = (Politican)myVector.get(1);

# oh...
and u got 'import java.util.Vector;' first thing at the top of ur class file right...

# no
i stuck "import java.util.*" so it imports everything

i'll add .Vector and see if that helps
