if i try printing the string value on the console it works.

Document makeDoc(ArrayList tempy)
{

Document doc = new Document(new Element("transformation"));

Element element = new Element("fibonacci");

String s1= (String)tempy.get(0);

String s= "Nishant";

System.out.println(s1);

element.setText(s3);


doc.getRootElement().addContent(element);
}
