Hello, I am trying to get a 2 dimensional array to print out correctly. My requirements are that I need the array to loop 64,000 times and have 2 dice and tally the combination of the rolls. Here is my code any help will be appreciated thanks.

package twodarray;

import java.util.Random;
public class TwoDarray {

    
    public static void main(String[] args) {

      
       loopArray();
        
 }


public static void loopArray ()
{
    Random rand = new Random();
    int counter2D[][] = new int [9][9];
    
    for (int i = 0; i <= 64000; i++) {
        counter2D[ rand.nextInt(8) ] [rand.nextInt (8)]++;
       
        System.out.printf ("%20s\n",i);
} 
    
}

What problems are you having? What does it print?

I am working on a 2 dimensional array to tally the results of dice rolls i.e like 7 | 2. I am using the random scanner but I cannot figure out how to get the values to print out that the random generator gets. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

package twodarray;

import java.util.Random;
public class TwoDarray {

    
    public static void main(String[] args) {

      System.out.printf ("%s%10s\n", "Index","Value");
     

      loopArray();
      printArray();
      
      
 }


public static void loopArray ()
{   
    Random rand = new Random();
    int counter2D[][] = new int [9][9];
     
    for (int i = 1; i <= 64000; i++)
{
      counter2D[ rand.nextInt(8) ][ rand.nextInt(8)] ++;
        
      System.out.printf("%20s | %20s\n", i, counter2D[i]);
}  
}
   
    public static void printArray(int... counter2D)
    {
        for ( int i = 1; i < counter2D.length; i++ )
        {

Duplicate topics merged. Please avoid duplicate posting.

The variable name length is the number of arrays in the 2D array. The varName[index].length is the length of the individual arrays. So for example:

for(int i = 0; i < myArr.length; i++){ //foreach array
   for(int j = 0; j < myArr[i].length; i++){ //foreach elem in myArr[i]

   }
}

And just print the given element.
