    Default Needs help in my program of a bank account!

    I need to do an assignment with the question requirement as follow.
    -The system to maintain a list up to 20 accounts. Each account has a unique account number and account balance.
    -Need to perform the following tasks repeatedly until he quits.(add account, search account and display account).
    Your program should include the following:
    -Two arrays, one to store the account number and the other to store the account balance.
    -The method displayMenu() to display the following menu:
    Menu
    1. Add an account
    2. Search an account with the given account number
    3. Display accounts below the given balance
    0. Exit
    - The method addAccount() to add an account to the system. This method should receive
    as the parameters the two arrays mentioned above and an integer number that keeps track
    of the number of accounts so far. It prompts and reads the account number and account
    balance from the user and adds it to the system. The method should return the total
    number of accounts. You are required to ensure that the number of accounts in the system
    is less than 20 before prompting for input. You are also required to ensure that the
    account number is unique (note: you may use the search() method written below for
    the validation).
    - The method search() to search for an account with the account number entered by the
    user. The method should return the index of the account in the array if it is found, or -1 if
    it is not found.
    - The method displayAccounts() to display all the accounts that has the balance
    below the amount entered by the user.
    - The main() method that calls the desired method to perform the task according to the
    user's selection. You are required to use switch statement here.


    This is my code until so far. i am stuck till the add account.
    Really appreciate if any pro out there can help me with this.

    import java.util.*;

    public class Qn3{
    public static void main(String[]args){
    Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in);
    int [] accNum = new int[20];
    double [] accBal = new double[20];
    new Qn3();
    switch ( scn.nextInt() ) {
    case 1:
    System.out.println ( "You picked option 1" );
    addAccount(accNum);
    case 2:
    System.out.println ( "You picked option 2" );
    break;
    case 3:
    System.out.println ( "You picked option 3" );
    break;
    default:
    System.err.println ( "Unrecognized option" );
    break;
    }
    }
    public void displayMenu(){
    System.out.println("Menu");
    System.out.println("1. Add an account");
    System.out.println("2. Search an account with the given account number");
    System.out.println("3. Display accounts below the given balance");
    System.out.println("0. Exit");
    }
    public static void addAccount(int[] accNum, double [] accBal){
    Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in);

    for (int n=0; n<accNum.length; n++)
    {
    if(accNum[n] == 0){
    System.out.print("Enter account Number " + (n+1) + ": ");
    accNum[n] = scn.nextInt();
    }
    }
    }
    public Qn3(){
    displayMenu();
    }
    }

    What should be done when an account is added?
    What data does the program need to open a new account?
    Where will the program store the data about the new accounts so it can access them when it needs to?

    The posted code needs to be formatted by adding indentations of 3-4 spaces to statements that are at different nesting levels of logic. The posted code all starts in the first column which makes it hard to see the logic.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
