Can someone tell me what is the problem in my code [closed]

Class pair

public static class pair {
    int x;
    int y;

    public void pair(int x, int y) {
        this.x = x;
        this.y = y;
    }
}

main function

What I want to do is to create an array of objects of class pair and take input in the array of objects

public static void main(String args[]) {
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    pair[] p = new pair[2];

    for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
        p[i].x = sc.nextInt(); // here I get the error is "Cannot assign field "x" because "p[i]" is null" 
        p[i].y = sc.nextInt();
    }
}

Answer

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    pair[] p;

    int x, y;

    p = new pair[2];

    for (int i = 0; i < p.length; i++) {
        x = sc.nextInt();
        y = sc.nextInt();
        p[i] = new pair(x,y); 
    // Assign Object Instead of assigning to class members
    }
    
    for (int j = 0; j < p.length; j++) {
        System.out.println(p[j].x + " "+ p[j].y);
    }
    
}
