    public class Item
    {


    /**
    * @param args
    */
    /**
    * @param args
    */


    private String name;
    private double cost;
    private int qty;

    public Item(String name, double cost, int qty) {
    this.name = name;
    this.cost = cost;
    this.qty = qty;

    }

    public String getName() {
    return name;
    }

    public void setName(String Itemname) {
    name = Itemname;
    }

    public double getCost() {
    return cost;
    }

    public void setCost(double d) {
    cost = d;

    }

    public int getQty() {
    return qty;
    }

    public void setQty(int ItemQty) {
    qty = ItemQty;
    }



    public static boolean ItemFound()throws FileNotFoundException
    {

    @SuppressWarnings("resource")
    Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
    String input = scan.nextLine();
    Item[]items = new Item[4];
    items[0]= new Item("n",2.2,4);
    items[0].setName("Oreo");
    items[0].setCost(6.00);
    items[0].setQty(10);

    items[1]= new Item("n",2.2,4);
    items[1].setName("Rice");
    items[1].setCost(3.99);
    items[1].setQty(20);

    items[2]= new Item("n",2.2,4);
    items[2].setName("Milk");
    items[2].setCost(0.79);
    items[2].setQty(75);

    items[3]= new Item("n",2.2,4);
    items[3].setName("Flour");
    items[3].setCost(2.49);
    items[3].setQty(5);


    items[0].getName();
    items[0].getCost();

    items[2].getName();
    items[2].getCost();
    items[2].getQty();

    items[3].getName();
    items[3].getCost();
    items[3].getQty();

    for(int i=0; i<items.length; i++)
    {



    if(input.equals(items[i].getName()))
    {


    return true;

    }


    }

    return false;

    }


    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException
    {
    //Array array = new Array();
    System.out.println("Please Enter the Item you Would Like to Purchase");
    //Item[]items = new Item[4];
    Item itm = new Item("d", 2.2, 3);


    if(itm.ItemFound())

    {
    System.out.println("You are lucky, we found your Item.");


    }

    else
    {
    System.out.println("Did not find your item");

    }





    }




    }


    Right now it only prints whether the item is found or not but please let me know how I can print the found item along with the the name, quantity and the cost. I have tried many ways but haven't been successful... Please help me with this.

    Default Re: Problem with printing appropriate information of the item

    First thing, please wrap your code in code tags so that it could be readable. Also, you have the setters and getters in your class, why don't you use them to get the name, quantity and cost of that specific item?
