ok, I have a program that uses a list and stack to convert Infix to Postfix. I finally worked out all the kinks with it except one thing, which I'll get into in a minute, and now I want to reverse the process, turn Postfix into Infix. I gave it a go, and the output was all wrong. I tried debugging it and I have no idea where it's messing up. So I have 2 problems
1)If I make a MyTest class like:
public class MyTest{
public static void main(String args[]){
Postfix px = new Postfix();
String input = "(a1+a2*a123)+123";
px.parsing(input);
px.conversion();
px.clear();
input = "a*b+c*d*e+f";
px.parsing(input);
px.conversion();
px.clear();
}
}
It will output the first part correctly, but when it gets to the second input it throws:java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
right after running the parsing method, which I don't understand why it would do that.
2) When I run the MyTest class without the second input but with the reverse method in there it prints out a weird output that looks like this:( a123 + ) )( ( ( + a1 ) * a2 )( ( a1 + ( a2 * a123 ) ) + 123 ) when it should be( ( a1 + ( a2 * a123 ) ) + 123 )
I walked through the debug and I don't see how it could be doing this because it looked ok to me, but then again I am also new to debugging.
I'll put up the code to my Postfix class below. Any help you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated.

private ListReferenceBaseCSCE1040 token = new ListReferenceBaseCSCE1040();
