    Default the values of my array are totally modified by an affectation

    Hello,
    I am new in java programming. I'm doing an exercise on a Mooc and I have some trouble with my code.
    The following code is supposed to return an array and I will print the values that are contained in it.
    public static Element[] LZ77(int[] tab, int tailleFenetre)
    	{
     
    		int taille = LZ77Longueur(tab,tailleFenetre);
    		Element[] t = new Element [taille];
    		Occurrence test = new Occurrence(0,0);
    		Element temp = new Element(test,0);
    		int c = 0;
    		int element = 0;
    		int i = 0;
    		int next = 0;
    		while (c < tab.length && tab[i+1]!=2)
    		{
    			 test = plusLongueOccurrence(tab,c,tailleFenetre);
    			 int k = test.taille;
    			 int r = test.retour;
    			 next = tab[c+k];
    			 c = c + k + 1;
    			 test.retour = r;
    			 test.taille = k;
    			 //temp.s = next;
    			 temp.e = test;
    			 temp.s = next;
    			 t[element]=temp;
    			 element ++;
     
    	   }
    		t[t.length-1].s = 2;
     
    		return t;
    	}
    My problem is that the values of the array t are modified by the current affectation. How could I do to solve that?

    the values of the array t are modified by the current affectation
    Can you post some program output that shows what you are having problems with? Add some comments that say what the output should look like and give an example.

    Well, that's the output of my program
    (10,4)2(10,4)2(10,4)2(10,4)2(10,4)2(10,4)2(10,4)2
    Normally, I should obtain this:
    (0,0)0(0,0)1(2,2)1(5,3)0(4,4)0(10,1)1(10,4)2

    How can the program be compiled and executed for testing?

    Not all the code. Just enough to compile, execute and show the problem.

    			  this.e = e;
    			  this.s = s;
    		  }
     
    	}

    For testing I use the following code:
    final static int[] testsLz = { 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2 };
    for (int[] line: Data.testsLz)
        	LZ77.afficheEncode(LZ77.LZ77(line, 10));
              System.out.printf("done\n");
    It's only the function LZ77 that doesn't work.

    There is no main() method in the code so it doesn't execute.

    public class Test {
     
      public static void main(String[] args) {
    testLz3();
    public static void testLz3() {
     
        final static int[]line =  { 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2 }

    There are many compiler errors in that code. Please fix them.
