java - 为什么我的 Connect 4 程序中出现 NullPointerException？

Question

有人可以解释一下为什么当我尝试在 Connect Four 板上放置计数器时会收到 NullPointerException 错误吗:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at Counter.canMakeMove(Counter.java:26)
at Main.main(Main.java:31)

我知道当程序尝试引用具有空值的对象时会发生 NullPointerException 错误，但我无法理解它从哪里派生该空值？

我正在尝试编写面向对象的代码，因此也将不胜感激任何 future 的评论/提示!

将数组和播放计数器初始化移动到static block 中。这确保 the board is initialized在调用任何方法之前:

static {
    gameBoard = new int[heightOfBoard][widthOfBoard];
    totalPlayed=0;
}
