Infinite Loop Problem

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:33:09 -0700

I can't think of how to stop this infinite loop I have ran into. The assignment is to create a menu driven program and have the user enter a word into the dictionary. Then they have the choice to enter more words or check a word against the "dictionary" they have created.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class W11E1 {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Menu();

Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);

String [] array = new String [100];

int choice = getChoice();

while (true){

if (choice == 1){

System.out.println("Enter a word into dictionary.");

for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
array [i] = input.next();

if (i > array.length)
System.out.println("Limit reached.");}}

if (choice == 2){

System.out.println("Enter word to check against dictionary.");

String Word = CheckWord();

for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
array [i] = Word;}}

if (choice == 3){
System.exit(0);}

Menu();
getChoice();
}
}

public static void Menu(){
System.out.println("Enter your choices corresponding number.");
System.out.println("1. Enter a dictionary word.");
System.out.println("2. Check a word against the dictionary.");
System.out.println("3. Quit.");
}

public static int getChoice(){
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);

int choice = input.nextInt();

return choice;
}

public static String CheckWord(){
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);

String Word = input.next();

return Word;
}

}
