Put players into an ArrayList<String>?

 

?????? what you mean explain

 

We mean we're not giving you code, I've thrown out loads of it today. Look at my profile past posts... I explain ArrayLists

 

so i got this ArrayList<Player> p = new ArrayList<Player>(); what do i do with that ?

 

First of all, store their names, not the instance of the player.
Secondly, just add player's name into it...

 

you create a HashMap<String, ArrayList<String>> teams = new HashMap<String, ArrayList<String>>();
and in this you store teams with an ArrayList<String> of playernames

 

Why make it more complex than it should? Just have 2 ArrayLists for 2 teams

 

In case he needs a fixed amount of teams, yes I agree

 

ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String> ()

}is what ive got now is that orrect also how would o store players name in there

 

list.add(String);

 

ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>()

ArrayList<String> List = new ArrayList<String> ()
list.add(String);


i get a error

 

One might think about giving the error?
