Hi
Your problem is in the following line:
if((j==0)||(max.length()>firstName[j].length()))
because the array firstName has only one position (firstName[0]) so when j=1
is the error
so the solution should be the next:
if((j==0)||(max.length()<firstName[0].length()))
{
max = firstName[0];
}
Hope that helps
