https://leetcode.com/problems/predict-the-winner/ Please check this question out on leetcode and can anyone tell me why my code wont work?

class Solution {
    public boolean stoneGame(int[] piles) {
        int total=0;
        for(int pile:piles)total+=pile;
        int [][]dp=new int[piles.length][piles.length];
        for(int []arr:dp)Arrays.fill(arr,-1);
        int alice=recursion(0,piles.length-1,piles,true,dp);
        int bob=total-alice;
        return alice>bob;
    }
    public int recursion(int start,int end,int []piles,boolean alice,int [][]dp){
        if(start>end){
            return 0;
        }
        if(dp[start][end]!=-1)return dp[start][end];
        if(alice){
            int stTake=piles[start]+recursion(start+1,end,piles,false,dp);
            int endTake=piles[end]+recursion(start,end-1,piles,false,dp);
            return dp[start][end]=Math.max(stTake,endTake);
        }
        else{
            int stTake=piles[start]+recursion(start+1,end,piles,true,dp);
            int endTake=piles[end]+recursion(start,end-1,piles,true,dp);
            return dp[start][end]=Math.min(stTake,endTake);
        }
    }
}

It is working, I literally copy-pasted your solution and got AC just change the function name to public boolean predictTheWinner(int[] piles)

Edit — Why do you keep editing your code and adding more mistakes?

    Sorry i accidentally copy-pasted the solution that was working. I edited the code just now. This is the one that doesnt seem to work. Edit-Can you tell me what the mistake is this code? i cant seem to figure it out.
