you have an array with 5 elements - you try to access the 6th element

an array with 5 elements , has indexes 0-4, an array with 4 elements has indexes 0-3 and so on.... An index of 5 would try to access the 6th element, which is out of bounds to the array.

you probably have a for loop that doesnt have the correct guard or you are directly trying to access the 6th element of the array, when the array is simply smaller than 6 elements.
