title: Very simple code for number search gives me infinite loop
body: <p>I am a newbie Computer Science high school student and I have trouble with a small snippet of code. Basically, my code should perform a basic CLI search in an array of integers. However, what happens is I get what appears to be an infinite loop (BlueJ, the compiler I'm using, gets stuck and I have to reset the machine). I have set break points but I still don't quite get the problem...(I don't even understand most of the things that it tells me)</p>
  
  <p>Here's the offending code (assume that "ArrayUtil" works, because it does):</p>
  
  <pre><code>import java.util.Scanner;
  public class intSearch
  {
     public static void main(String[] args)
     {
         search();
     }
  
     public static void search()
     {
         int[] randomArray = ArrayUtil.randomIntArray(20, 100);
         Scanner searchInput = new Scanner(System.in);
         int searchInt = searchInput.nextInt();
         if (findNumber(randomArray, searchInt) == -1)
         {
             System.out.println("Error");
         }else System.out.println("Searched Number: " + findNumber(randomArray, searchInt));
     }
  
     private static int findNumber(int[] searchedArray, int searchTerm)
     {
        for (int i = 0; searchedArray[i] == searchTerm &amp;&amp; i &lt; searchedArray.length; i++)
        {
            return i;
        }
        return -1;
     }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This has been bugging me for some time now...please help me identify the problem!</p>
