在 Java 中，我将如何进行循环遍历二维数组，当找到某个值时，打印一行然后退出循环？

Question

I am working on an assignment that is making a program that adds and subtracts passengers that are on a plane, displayed via a 2d array. I am trying to write code that will check if the seat a passenger requests is reserved or open. I made for loops that iterate through my 2d array that check if the elements of the 2d array have a matching element of an array of Passenger names I made. If there is a name at the seat that the passenger requested, the program should print Denied ; if the seat is open the program should print Confirmed . Right now, my program does this "correctly," but displays Denied or Confirmed a bunch of times. I am not sure how to fix this. I suspect it is because my break; statements only cut off the innermost loop that the statement belongs to.

Here is all of my code(Some parts aren't yet finished but that won't interfere with what I am doing):

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Plane {
    static Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        chartMaker();

    } //ends main

    public static void chartMaker() {
        String operator = " ";
        String Pname = " ";
        String SeatNum = " ";
        int runtime = 0;
        int SeatsTaken = 0;
        int TotalSeats = 48;
        int SeatsAvailable = 0;
        String[][] chart = new String[][]{
            {"1", "2", "3", "x", "4", "5", "6"}, 
            {"7", "8", "9", "x", "10", "11", "12"}, 
            {"13", "14", "15", "x", "16", "17", "18"},
            {"19", "20", "21", "x", "22", "23", "24"}, 
            {"25", "26", "27", "x", "28", "29", "30"}, 
            {"31", "32", "33", "x", "34", "35", "36"},
            {"37", "38", "39", "x", "40", "41", "42"}, 
            {"43", "44", "45", "x", "46", "47", "48"}
            };

            for(int i = 0; i < chart.length; i++) //starts printing of chart
            {
                for(int j = 0; j < chart[i].length; j++)
                {
                    System.out.print(chart[i][j] + " ");
                }
                System.out.println();
            }                                   //ends printing of chart

            System.out.println();
            while(runtime < 48) {
            System.out.print("Enter + to add a passenger, - to delete a passenger, or q to quit: ");
            operator = sc.nextLine(); 
            switch(operator) {
            case "+":
                System.out.print("Enter passenger name: ");
                Pname = sc.nextLine();
                System.out.print("Enter seat number: ");
                SeatNum = sc.nextLine();
                SeatChance(Pname, SeatNum, SeatsTaken, TotalSeats, SeatsAvailable);
                SeatsTaken++;
                for(int a = 0; a < chart.length; a++) //prints the updated chart
                {
                    for(int b = 0; b < chart[a].length; b++)
                    {
                        if(SeatNum.contentEquals(chart[a][b]))
                        {
                            chart[a][b] = Pname;
                            System.out.print(chart[a][b] + "   ");
                        }else {
                            System.out.print(chart[a][b] + "   ");
                        }
                    }System.out.println();
                }                                   //ends printing the updated chart
                System.out.println("Passenger: " + Pname);
                System.out.println("Seat Number: " + SeatNum);
                String[] Passengers = new String[SeatsTaken];
                Passengers[SeatsTaken - 1] = Pname;
                System.out.println("Passengers: ");
                for(int j = 0; j < Passengers.length; j++)
                {
                    System.out.println(Passengers[j]);
                }

                for(int x = 0; x < chart.length; x++) //checks if seat is taken
                {
                    for(int c = 0; c < chart[x].length; c++)
                    {
                        for(int g = 0; g < Passengers.length; g++)
                        {
                        if(chart[x][c].contentEquals(Passengers[g]))
                        {
                            System.out.println("Denied");
                            break;

                        }else {
                            System.out.println("Confirmed");
                            break;
                        }
                        }
                    }
                }

                break;
            case "-":
                System.out.println("");

                break;
            case "q":
                runtime = runtime + 48;
                System.out.println("End of Program");
                break;
            } //ends switch statement
            runtime++;
            } //ends while loop for asking user
            /*UpdateChart(chart, Pname, SeatNum);

    } //ends chartMaker
    //seatChance is broken
    public static void SeatChance(String Pname, String SeatNum, int SeatsTaken, int TotalSeats, int SeatsAvailable) {
        double SeatChance = 0.0;
        SeatsAvailable = TotalSeats - SeatsTaken;
        SeatChance = (SeatsAvailable / TotalSeats) * 100;
        System.out.println(Pname + " has a " + SeatChance + "% chance of getting the seat");
    } //ends SeatChance

        }


    } //ends UpdateChart
*/
} //ends Plane

Here is my code that needs fixed:

    for(int x = 0; x < chart.length; x++) //checks if seat is taken
                {
                    for(int c = 0; c < chart[x].length; c++)
                    {
                        for(int g = 0; g < Passengers.length; g++)
                        {
                        if(chart[x][c].contentEquals(Passengers[g]))
                        {
                            System.out.println("Denied");
                            break;

                        }else {
                            System.out.println("Confirmed");
                            break;
                        }
                        }
                    }
                }

And here is my output:

Passenger: John
Seat Number: 14
Passengers: 
John

I am assuming that the random Denied in the output is caused when my 2d array updates the values of the elements in the array, but I am not really sure.

Answer 1

The break statement exits the block and furthermore, ensures that the 'for' or 'while' loop that you're in does not iterate.

Notably, just break; does that to the nearest for/while/switch construct you're in.

For your break statements, the block you want to break out of is not actually the nearest. It also sounds like this would be a lot simpler if your outer loop loops passengers. So, from outer to inner: Passengers, planes, seats. You're also checking if the grid contains the name of the passenger; it sounds like that's wrong, and you just want to know if there's anybody in that seat.

To break out of an outer loop:

label:
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
   for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++) {
       if (i == 1 && j == 2) break label;
       System.out.print(i + "" + j + " ");
   }
}

this would print 000102030405060708091011.
