Continuin to fail at Java

[SKG_Scintill]

New problem:

Is there a way to make a for-loop that repeats its previous steps when the increment increases.

i.e:

public void recurseLoop(int condition){
	for(int x = 0; x < condition; x++){
		//when x=0 it does a command
		//when x=1 it does the previous command and another command
		//when x=2 it does the previous 2 commands and another command
		//when x=3 it does the previous 3 commands and another command
		//etc
	}
}

I have an ArrayList and every element needs a different command.
But in some cases the program replaces a value in the ArrayList, hence why it has to keep doing the previous commands.

Any ideas?

Do you mean something like this?

for (int x = 0; x < condition; x++)
{
	for (int y = 0; y < x; y ++)
	{
		System.out.println(y);
	}
}

// For x = 3, prints out 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2

It goes through the for-loop condition-many times, then it'll go through another for-loop condition-many times with the current x-value as its limit every time. I hope that helps in some way.

To do something like this

public void recurseLoop(int condition){
	for(int x = 0; x < condition; x++){
		//when x=0 it does a command
		//when x=1 it does the previous command and another command
		//when x=2 it does the previous 2 commands and another command
		//when x=3 it does the previous 3 commands and another command
		//etc
	}
}

You do something like this

public void recurseLoop(int condition){
	for(int x = 0; x < condition; x++){
		switch(x){
			case 3:
				command3();
			case 2:
				command2();
			case 1:
				command1();
			case 0:
				command0();
		}
	}
}

Just a switch statement without breaks -- you rely on fallthrough behavior.
