Problem with Array

Ruby
1

Hi!

If some one can help me to fix this code. I want to store the value of
faulty_array[num] in faulty_line[i] and correct_array[num] in
correct_line[i] so that I can access them at later stage. I will be
thankful.

…

faulty_line=[]
correct_line=[]

c_length=correct_array.length
f_length=faulty_array.length

c_length.times do |num|

if correct_array[num] != faulty_array[num]

faulty_line[i]= faulty_array[num]  #problem arises at this line
correct_line[i]= correct_array[num] #problem arises at this line

end

end

puts faulty_line[0]
puts faulty_line[0]

I’m not positive what you are trying to do here. However from the code
you
have posted i never changes so you will continuously overwrite
faulty_line[i] and correct_line[i].

If you are trying to correlate line numbers with line data maybe a hash
would be better? For example:

array_of_errors # this would be an array
error_line_numbers # this would be an array

errors = {}

error_line_numbers.each do |line_number|
errors[line_number.to_sym] = array_of_errors[line_number]
end

of course this also assumes a one to one mapping of the line_number and
line_data arrays.
