Here is my output.

1: Add an item to the pack.
2: Remove an item from the pack.
3: Search for a flower.
4: Display the flowers in the pack.
0: Exit the flower pack interfact.

I'm been working on this for awhile. I'm so tried I must have over looked something. I know it something easy. Can someone help me?

I will try to answer the questions as best as I can.

What should the output look like? My output is supposed to have an object of my Flower class. The flower class consists of attributes of my flower class. i.e. flowertype, flowercolor, thronsAvailable and flowersmell. Output should look like this.

Rose Red Yes Yes
Daisy, Blue, No, Yes
etc
etc

What variables are being printed as null? Your guess is mines. I think it has something to do with my Flower constructor?

Where is the code that is supposed to assign those variables non-null values?

Any null variable should have my flower object stored. Which is displayed below.

for(i = 0; i < flowerPack.length; i++)
{
if( deleteflower.equals(flowerPack[i]) )
{
flowerPack[i] = null;

}

}


Why isn't that code being executed? The code is being executed but its assign to some type of weird character combination i.e. FlowerPack[1] = Flower@35bab2.

What is in the flowerPack array? The flower pack has a default value of null.

I hope this helps answer your question.
