hey again i've fixed my code a little and need a little help. I've got the flush and one pair determinations to work but the three of a kind, straight, straight flush and royal straight flush are giving me a little trouble. If anyone has any suggestions, i would really appreciate the help my code is below
By the way, for the straight determination, i could only get rank numbers that are close to each other, like 2, 3, 4 to make Straight output. Numbers like 2,15,4 which = 2,3,4 when it outputs doesnt output straight

1. Are you sure, that your example is correct 2,15,4 which = 2,3,4 ... and not 16 = 3?
2. You don't check the case, when you get, for example 4,2,3. In that case your (x == 2) and (ex == 1), but it is still Straight.
P.S. If the first part of your problem (I mean thread "determine type of card hand") is solved, mark it solved, please :)

hii bro
your codes work properly but you are missing braces at the end of the method.

System.out.println("Straight Flush");

good luck
