Code not working

Question

Hey , my code is :
String m = args[0];
int n = Integer.parseInt(m);
String[] array = new String[n];
boolean z = false;

for (int i = 0 ; i < n ; i++){
array[i] = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Geben sie einen Namen ein");
}
String vergleich = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Geben sie einen weiteren Namen ein.");

for (int i = 0 ; i < n ; i++){
if (vergleich.equals(array[i])){
System.out.println(i);
z = true;
break;
}
}
if (z == false);
System.out.println("Name nicht vorhanden");

But the z does not get set to true whether the equals statement is true or not. When it is true everything else works right , the System.out.println(i) and break is both working right. But the z = true; does not work because the last if statement is triggered in every case , when the equals statement is true or not. Would be nice if someone could help me!

Answer 1

this is not the problem. the issue is that you added a semicolon ';' after the last if statement.

if(z==false); //<-- remove the semicolon
