I have an array of buttons which i am adding to a container (16
buttons in all).

I am using a FOR loop to create/add the buttons. i am assigning the
value of the "counter" as the name of the buttons (0, 1, 2 etc...)
however when the counter reaches "10" i want to create the remaining
6 buttons with the names "A, B, C...F".

I have created a separate String array but i can only manage to
display the numbers and then the last 6 are all just "F" ???

heres my code:

String chars[] = {"A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F"};

Button buttons[];

buttons = new Button[16];

for(int i = 0; i < 16; i++) {
buttons[i] = new Button("" + i);
//buttons[i].addActionListener(myHandler);
if(i >= 10) {
for(int j = 0; j < 6; j++) {
buttons[i] = new Button(chars[j]);
//buttons[i].addActionListener(myHandler);
}
}
superPanel.add(buttons[i]);
}

any help would be cool
