Question by captainvera · Mar 26, 2013 at 03:19 AM · javascriptsplit

Array index is out of range

i get the error above in this line of code:

     RandomNumber = Random.Range(0, 4);

     Word = Database[RandomNumber];

----->WordinUse = Word.Split(""[0]);

why is this? btw the database array is : var Database = ["eu","joao","lampada"] ;

im sorry if this is a stupid mistake, im new to unity and javascript.

Thanks in advance for the help!

With the ""[0], you are specifying an empty string (length is zero), and then you are trying to index into the first character. Assuming you are trying to split on a space, leave a space between the two quotation marks.

You can use the function in this post:

http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/169442/split-a-string-every-n-characters.html

That seems like overkill. If you are just trying to index into the string you can do:

var theChar = Word[0];

to access a specific character (in this case the first one).

I don't think it buys you anything over indexing into the string, but you can do something like:

var array_of_characters = Word.ToCharArray();

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ezftk57x.aspx

This will "split" your string into an array of characters.
