You need to set the drawing color BEFORE drawing the String text on the image.

I have never seen that happen. If you are using the same computer to develop on as you had to make this post I could not see why the host name resolution would fail.

If the array is sorted you can use a binary search to find one of the instances of the '3', then you just count up and down until you hit non-3's There will be a linear element to this and your worst case running is big O of n. If you could make you array a giant string then you could use regular expressions to find all instances of a pattern, but that would take a lot longer than the first method.

BTW, the list will ALWAYS exist; it just might be empty of elements.

oh ok, how did you fix it? post the programme

No Problem :D
