Hi,
The problem is :
You are creating empty String array object
string[] nameArrayForPerson = new string[];
you should define an array size and then create , for example
int numPerson = 3;
String[] family = new String[numPerson];
or
String[] family = new String[3];
Please change your source code. After change it should work.
Kind regards,

I'm at a loss for what to do with the homework. Here is what I have
so far with the corresponding output.
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class OwnJavaArray {
public static void main(String[] args) {
string[] nameArrayForPerson = new string[];
int counter;
int max = 0;
int totalnumber = 3;
// Prompt a user to enter numbers
for(counter = 0; counter < totalnumber; counter++){
nameArrayForPerson[counter] = Integer.parseInt
(JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the family
names until " + totalnumber + " sets of first and last names are
entered"));
// Compute the greatest name up to this point
if((counter == 0)||(name[counter] > max))
max = nameArrayForPerson[counter];
String[] nameArrayForPerson[counter] =
person[counter]NameInstance.split(" ");
}
// Display the name with the greatest length.
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"The name with the greatest
length is " + max);
}
