    <p>I'm using Java for a data mining project and am having an odd issue with an ArrayList.</p> <p>The ArrayList (availAttribs) contains the names of all the attributes not yet used in the current branch of a decision tree. At the beginning of the loop an attribute is chosen and the index of that attribute in the ArrayList is stored in chosenAttribute. The logic is performed then the item is removed from the list and another is chosen.</p> <p>The program wasn't behaving as expected so I used a for each loop to display the current contents of the ArrayList before each attribute selection so I could check the contents.</p> <p>This is what I got:</p> <pre><code>availAttribs contains ... -Color -size -act -age Chose attribute #1: size availAttribs contains ... -Color -act -age Chose attribute #1: size </code></pre> <p>The attributes are being chosen at random:</p> <pre><code>for(String s : availAttribs) { System.out.println(" -" + s); } chosenAttribute = random.nextInt(availAttribs.size() - 1); System.out.println(" Chose attribute #" + chosenAttribute + ": " + trainSet.attribute(chosenAttribute).name()); // other stuff here availAttribs.remove(chosenAttribute); </code></pre> <p>All of that is within a while loop checking for the exit condition. I would think that if an item wasn't successfully removed that it would show up when I iterated through the list and printed each element but apparently it can still access them.</p> <p>Edit: random was declared outside the while loop:</p> <pre><code>Random random = new Random(System.currentTimeMillis() ); </code></pre>

    2. COWhat is trainSet? You just modify availAttribs but show contents of trainSet. Are they coupled?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
