    Default Some questions/concern when using adjacency matrix to implement a graph in Java

    I'm a newer in Java and now about to use adjacency matrix(2D array) to implement a graph, but encountered some problems, pls help me,thanks. following are partly codes.

    // following codes create a empty graph
    public AdjMatrix() {
    private boolean[][] adjacencymatrix; /*Define a 2D array to store adjacency matrix*/
    private int vertices_numb; /*Number of vertices in the graph */
    T[] vertices; /*To store the values of vertices*/
    vertices_numb=0 /*set the graph to empty*/
    } // end of AdjMatrix()


    //Following code is for adding a vertex.
    public void addVertex(T vertLabel) {
    if (vertices_numb == 0) //If the graph is empty, print related information and assign value 0 to adjacency matrix[0][0]
    System.out.println("Graph is empty!");
    adjacencymatrix[0][0]=0;
    vertices[0]=vertLabel; //To save the vertex
    vertices_numb=vertices_numb+1; //to count the number of vertex
    else
    for(int i=0;i<=vertices_numb;i++) {
    vertices[vertices_numb]=vertLabel;
    adjacencymatrix[i][vertices_num]= how does program know they are connected between 2 nodes?
    vertices_numb=vertices_numb+1;
    }
    } // end of addVertex()

    My problems are:
    1) How does program know if they are connected between two nodes?
    2) When adding a vertex, do we need to consider the connection between this one with the nodes exist?
    Many thanks.

    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:

    [code]
    **YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
    [/code]

    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

    My problems are:
    Sorry, I don't see any java programming problems here. Those questions are about the design logic that would be for any programming language.
    If you have a design and want help writing code for that design, please post it.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
