Hello All,

I am running into this problem of getting my array to output the
desired results. Below is the problem

i have two string arrays via

String[] ar1 = {1,2,1,4,1,2};
String[] ar2 = {7,3,7,5,7,3};

each array contains 6 elements.

i want to do something like this

compare elements of ar1 and ar2 with one another and the moment it
encounters a true condition, e.g in the above example when

(ar1[0].equals(ar1[2])) && (ar2[0].equals(ar2[2]))

then i want to array pointer to move to ar1[1] and ar2[1] so that it
starts comparing from index->1 and same logic apllies. The output
would be something like this for the first iteration

ar1 = {2,1,4,1,2}

ar2 = {3,7,5,7,3}

now if we applied same logic in a loop output would be

ar1 = {1,4,1,2}

ar2 = {7,5,7,3}

and final output

ar1 = {4,1,2}

ar2 = {5,7,3}

The final output should have a unique set of values

Appreciate any help

thanks
vivi
