Hi, your input array does not have 100 elements. The condition of your for loop: for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++) requires your for loop body code to run up to 100 times. The lines using: input[i] in the body code, however, cannot run and throws exception as the array input does not have 100 elements. You have to refactor your code. I am not sure what you are trying to do as I could not interpret from the naming of functions and variables, but the exception is caused by your for loop stated above; whenever it tries to call input[i] to be more precise and when the index i is bigger than the size of the input array. Hope this helps :)

I don't even know what you're trying to do, but imo you need to focus on bfjsIterate method and carefully observe the value of cIndex member, as I see it, the cIndex is the one used to address index pointing there.

@Hinanawi, I'm no good in C#, yes I saw that bound guard too, not too sure why or what, I only tested by commenting one method call, each once at a time, and got the exception upon uncommenting the bfjsIterate, unfortunately Code Playground doesn't help in pointing the line where it occurred, I can't seem to help any further, I would like to see you bust that bug, and when you do, please share it here as a lesson for us, okay. Best of luck : )

@lpang yes i see that's probably it, but the cIndex value is default at 0, and i have if statements to prevent it from going lower than 0 and over 99. will probably fire this up in visual studio later to get a more detailed error report

@Deddy Tandean ah yes thank you so much. i must have gotten confused while coding and accidentally coded the loop as if i was trying to iterate through the elements of the cell array not taking lengths into account. thanks.
