Adding an Array to panel

for (int count = 0; count = 26; count ++)
         {
              letter[count] += Alpha.charAt(count);
              arrBtnAlpha[count] = new JButton(letter[count]);
              pan1.add(arrBtnAlpha[count]);
         }

I want to add 26 buttons with letters of the alphabet but I want the first and second rows to have 9 letters and the remaining one letter to be on the 3rd row. I have already tried pan1.setLayout(new GridLayout(9, 4)); and it just fills the whole screen while I want to divide the container in to 3: panel 1, panel 2 and panel 3.
