You’ve got the input issue under control now, but I noticed another little bug in your code that could cause trouble later: the way you’re comparing strings.
In Java, == checks for reference equality, not content equality. Since area[j] is a String object, using == might not give the expected result. To compare string values, use the .equals() method instead.
Here’s the corrected part of your search logic:
if (search.equals(area[j])) // ✅ This correctly compares string values
Pros: This ensures that the program correctly checks if the search string matches any area.
Cons: It’s a small detail, but you just need to remember to use .equals() when comparing strings.
