hello,i have a problem in my math project.

my project is to write a program that read set of element and its relation. the input data will be from text file.(Set<space>Relation).

{1,2,3} {(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(1,3),(2,3)}

i have no problem reading text file into the program but im stuck when i want to try to put the relation into the two dimension array.

for example

{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(1,3),(2,3)}

the two dimension array have to be like this.

col[0][1][2]
[0] 1  1  1
[1]    1  1
[2]       1

i don't know how to set one into two dimension array because there are various relation in the text file.

does anyone knows how to solve this problem?

please,help me..

thanks~

stuck when i want to try to put the relation into the two dimension array.

Can you define what a "relation" is and how it's value is put into the array? You need to explain what goes into each row and column of the 2D array.

As far as I can see...
Your 2d array looks like
int[][] rel = new int[3][3];
then for each relation (i, j) you set the corresponding element to 1
rel[i][j] = 1;

The size of the array depends on the number of elements in the set, and you have to convert the elements of the set into 0-(n-1) array index values. Maybe the array should be boolean[][] and you set the value to true where there is a relation?

this is my coding.

}

i hope anyone understands it and can solve my problem.~

I doubt that anyone will make the effort to understand code that has meaningless variable names and no comments.

You need to explain what the problem is. Show the program's output, explain what is wrong with it and show what the output should be.
