Thread: Need help with a recursion..

Hello fellows.. In the second method "searchArray2" it shows me an error on "return false", which says that it's incompatible types.. I know that it's about mixing string and int, but what if I want my array to be int, how can I return true if the value is found, false otherwise.
Thank you

public class RecursiveCalculator
{
    public int searchArray(int[] array, int value){ 
        if (value != array.length)
            return value;
        else 
            return -1;
    }
 
    public String searchArray2(String[] array, String value){ 
        if (value != array.length)
            return false;
        else 
            return true;
    } 
 
    public String reverseString(String reverse){
        if (reverse.length() == 0) 
            return reverse;
 
        return reverseString(reverse.substring(1)) + reverse.charAt(0);
    }
}

So what am I supposed to do?
