find first empty cell?

What i want to do is use a for-loop to find the first empty cell in a 2D array and put a value in it. However, my code applies the loop to all empty cells in the array. What am i doing wrong here? I hope for a quick reply.

Code Java:

---

for (int row = 0; row < GRIDSIZE; row++) {
                for (int col = 0; col < GRIDSIZE; col++) {
                    if (isEmpty(row, col) == false) {
                        printIt(); 
                    } else {
                        setCell(row, col, 1);

---

Any help would be appreciated. :)

Where is the code that stops you from continuing the loop after you find the empty cell?

Ugh, but it seems I was wasting my time, as the OP already received an answer elsewhere: find first empty cell? - Java Forums

I apologize for my ignorance of the forums etiquette. In my defense id like to say that i was chasing a deadline and i wanted to increase my chances to find a solution as soon as i could.
I will have that in mind from now on.
