Thread: Printing boolean values from an array

I am having difficulty with a particular segment of a project and have created a test class in an attempt to debug it. The project requires a multi-dimensional array consisting of boolean values which I set to false and then specific coordinates of that grid to true. I then have a method with an if statement that if that boolean value is true then do such and such. It works backwards. Trying to look into the cause of this I created the following class:

public class booleanArrayTest {
 
	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
 
	public int n = 9;
 
	public boolean[][] start = new boolean[n][n];
 
	public void falseStart() {
		for (int x = 0; x < n; x++) {
			for (int y = 0; y < n; y++) {
				start[x][y] = false;
			}
		}
	}
 
	public void displayStart() {
		for (int x = 0; x < n; x++) {
			for (int y = 0; y < n; y++) {
		if (start[x][y] = false) {
			System.out.println(start[x][y]);
		}
			}
		}
	}
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		booleanArrayTest ArrayTest = new booleanArrayTest();
 
		ArrayTest.falseStart();
		ArrayTest.displayStart();
 
	}
}

Why can't I print those boolean values from the grid in this manner?

Thanks in advance
