Hello, I have a problem with a static block of my code that does not allow me to initialize my program

Question

private static final int Max_Platillos = 100;
private static Platillo[] platillos = new Platillo[Max_Platillos];

private static int numPlatillos = 0;
private static Platillo[] platillosIni = new Platillo[26];
private static int numeroPlatillosIni = 0;

static {

    for (int i = 0; i < 25; i++) {
        String nombre = nombresPlatillos[i];
        String descripcion = descripcionesPlatillos[i];
        int precio = Math.round((float) ((Math.random() * (20000 - 10000 + 1)) + 10000));
        TipoPlatillo tipo = TipoPlato[i];

        platillos[i] = new Platillo(nombre, descripcion, precio, tipo);
        numPlatillos++;
    }
}

This part of the code generates the following error Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError Caused by: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 24 out of bounds for length 24

But I have no idea since all arrays are defined to a quantity greater than that. And it is necessary that this method is initialized at the beginning to be able to create the initial dishes that go to the menu. I hope you can help me, thanks

I hope you can help me to solve this error, thanks

Can you solve my problem

[Don't use `static`](https://technojeeves.com/index.php/aliasjava1/108-static-is-a-swear-word) — g00se, Aug 19 '23 at 20:50
Arrays are indexed starting at `0`. The array `nombresPlatillos` has 24 entries. What is the index of the last value? Compare this to the `for`-condition of the loop. — Turing85, Aug 19 '23 at 20:50
And this is one reason that you should not use "magic numbers" in your for loops (or anywhere else). Loop until the length of the array, no more and no less. Another unrelated suggestion: separate the *data* from the *code*. Why not create text files with the data, either plain text or JSON, and then read the data into the program when it starts? — Hovercraft Full Of Eels, Aug 19 '23 at 20:53
@Turing85 What should I change in the code?, srry I'm very new in this world. — YerayCopley, Aug 19 '23 at 21:01
I will not provide a solution; this would rob you of the possibility to engage with the problem (and the information given) on your own, which will result in a better learning result. — Turing85, Aug 19 '23 at 21:03
Any basic Java tutorial that covers use of arrays and for loops will tell/show you how to fix this in the short term. In the long term, again, separate your data from your code. You can find great Java tutorials here: [The Java Tutorials](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/). The [Language Basics Section](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/index.html) will cover arrays and for loops well. — Hovercraft Full Of Eels, Aug 19 '23 at 21:15
*And what should I replace it with?* If it's not the `static` in `public static void main` the answer is an empty string — g00se, Aug 19 '23 at 21:16
For every static field you declare, that field will be "shared' by all instances of your class. Usually this is not something you want. — WJS, Aug 19 '23 at 22:19
