Thanks for the reply, I am trying to avoid writing the following over and over when the only thing that is going to change is the grap.getCol==1 and the 1 in the name of the int g1m0
I am looping through a list of graphics that are coming from multiple graphic arrays(7 total each representing its column) so they have different columns and rows. If it finds a match I want to add 1 to the corresponding in for example: if the array contains a graphic at grap.getCol()==6 && grap.getRow()==3 I want to add 1 to the int g6m3(note this pre defined int corresponds with the dol and row # respectivly) for (Graphic grap : _toCompare) { if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==1){ g1m0+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==2){ g1m0+=1; g1m1+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==3){ g1m0+=1; g1m1+=1; g1m2+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==4){ g1m0+=1; g1m1+=1; g1m2+=1; g1m3+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==5){ g1m0+=1; g1m1+=1; g1m2+=1; g1m3+=1; g1m4+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==1 && grap.getRow()==6){ g1m0+=1; g1m1+=1; g1m2+=1; g1m3+=1; g1m4+=1; g1m5+=1; } for (Graphic grap : _toCompare) { if(grap.getCol()==2 && grap.getRow()==1){ g2m0+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==2 && grap.getRow()==2){ g2m0+=1; g2m1+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==2 && grap.getRow()==3){ g2m0+=1; g2m1+=1; g2m2+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==2 && grap.getRow()==4){ g2m0+=1; g2m1+=1; g2m2+=1; g2m3+=1; }else if(grap.getCol()==2 && grap.getRow()==5){ g2m0+=1; g2m1+=1;....
