I don't understand you - you don't use that array, so why is it there at all?
I have spent a lot of time writing the whole thing out long hand.
Why?
Humans are lousy at repetition, but computers are designed for the job - why do the legwork yourself?
I'm posting from a tablet, so can't compile your code, but I can see it is far too long.
If you go into the IDE, click on "File/Examples/Control" you'll see a ready-made example on arrays.
