for loop stops working

[name]

Hi, I am writing a program that will have the user input information on 10 players into arrays, then display the players that meet a set of conditions. The program compiles fine, but when I input two players into the array (I set the max value of the arrays to 3 to make it easier for me to check the program) the for loop stops working. Could someone please help?

Thanks,

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class baseball{
    public static void main(String []args) throws IOException
	{
		//Start Variables
		int a;
		String name [] = new String [3];
		int age [] = new int [3];
		String position [] = new String [3];
		double average [] = new double [3];
		boolean draft[] = new boolean [3];
		String age_i;
		String average_i;
		
		//Start Input Stream
                BufferedReader in;
                in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
		
		//Main Menu
		System.out.println ("|--------------|");
		System.out.println ("|1. Input      |");
		System.out.println ("|2. View Draft |");
		System.out.println ("|3. Quit       |");
		System.out.println ("|--------------|");
		System.out.println ("|Input Choice: |");
		String choice_i = in.readLine();
		System.out.println ("");
		
		//Convert Choice
		int choice = Integer.valueOf(choice_i).intValue();
		
		//Switch
		switch(choice)
		{
			//Input
			case 1:
				for(a = 0; a <= 1; a++)
				{
					//State Player #
					System.out.println ("|Player " + (a+1));
					System.out.println ("|--------------");
					
					//Get Name
					System.out.println ("Input Name:");
					name [a] = in.readLine();
					System.out.println ("");
					
					//Get Age
					System.out.println ("Input Age:");
					age_i = in.readLine();
					System.out.println ("");
					age [a] = Integer.valueOf(age_i).intValue();
					
					//Get Position
					System.out.println ("Input Position:");
					position [a] = in.readLine();
					System.out.println ("");
					
					//Get Average
					System.out.println ("Input Batting Average:");
					average_i = in.readLine();
					System.out.println ("");
					average [a] = Double.valueOf(average_i).doubleValue();
					
					//Check For Can Draft
					if (age[a] < 25)
					{
						if (average[a] >= 0.280)
						{
							draft[a] = true;
						}else{
							draft[a] = false;
						}
					}else{
						draft[a] = false;
					}
					
					System.out.println ("");
				}
				break;
			
			//View Draft Choices
			case 2:
				for(a = 0; a <= 1; a++)
				{
					if (draft[a] = true)
					{
						System.out.println (name[a] + ", " + age[a] + ", " + position[a] + ", " + average[a]);
					}
				break;
			}
		}
	while (choice != 3);
	}
}

Could you show us which line produces error. And correct line 88, you need == instead =.

[name]

It is lines 38-82

[milovan]

There is a break; in line 92 which will stop the loop

Thanks for the help; I didn't solve the issue, but I think I can figure it out. I must end this thread now.

OK, you have next part of code:

case 2:                 
    for(a = 0; a <= 1; a++){                    
        if (draft[a] = true){                         
            System.out.println (name[a] + ", " + age[a] + ", " + position[a] + ", " + average[a]);                     
        }                 
        break; // this will break for loop        
    }

That is the first problem. The second is

while (choice != 3);

What is your intention with this condition. What do you think the program will do when reach this?
