Verification does not work is last numbers are the same. Guidance pls!

Hi, There's some slight logic problems. First you're getting an out of bounds error on line 17. This can be fixed by starting your array at 1 and comparing to the previous value (i-1). Second, you're resetting your counter in the wrong place. You reset it every time max value is passed over. This results in your max count never going over the value of 2. I have addressed these issues below.

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;


public class Solution {

    private static int count = 1;
    private static int maxCount = 1;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        //write your code here
        ArrayList<Integer> listOfNumbers = new ArrayList<>();

        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            listOfNumbers.add(Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine()));
        }

        for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
            if (listOfNumbers.get(i).equals(listOfNumbers.get(i - 1))) {
                count++;
            }
            else
            count = 1;

            if (maxCount < count) {
                maxCount = count;

            }
        }
        System.out.println(maxCount);
    }
}

public class Solution {

    private static int count = 1;
    private static int maxCount = 1;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        //write your code here
        ArrayList<Integer> listOfNumbers = new ArrayList<>();

        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            listOfNumbers.add(Integer.parseInt(reader.readLine()));
        }

        for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
            if (listOfNumbers.get(i).equals(listOfNumbers.get(i - 1))) {
                count++;
            } else count = 1;

            if (maxCount < count) maxCount = count;
            }

        System.out.println(maxCount);
    }

}

Here, my solution, using a comparative index to solve your problem:

int largestMatch = 0;
           int currentMatch = 1;
           int comparativeIndex = 1;
           Scanner keyboardInput = new Scanner(System.in);
           ArrayList<Integer> numArray = new ArrayList<>();


           while (numArray.size() < 10) {
               numArray.add(keyboardInput.nextInt());
           }
           keyboardInput.close();

           for (int i = 0; i < numArray.size()-1; i++) {
               numArray.get(i);
               if (numArray.get(i).equals(numArray.get(comparativeIndex))) {
                   currentMatch++;
               }
               if (!numArray.get(i).equals(numArray.get(comparativeIndex))) {
                   if (largestMatch <= currentMatch) {
                       largestMatch = currentMatch;
                   }
                   currentMatch = 1;
               }
               comparativeIndex++;
           }

           if (currentMatch > largestMatch) {
               System.out.println(currentMatch);
           }

           if (currentMatch <= largestMatch) {
               System.out.println(largestMatch);
           }


       }
