Hi ,
I have the following method that I created in Processing.

1. int searchthis( String item)
     {
       for( int i = 0 ; i< scenes.length ; i++)
       {
         if(scenes[i].equals(item))
         {
           return i;
         }
         else
           return -1;
       }
     }

However, for some reason or other, it does not seem to work.  It gives me the error:

processing.app.debug.RunnerException: unexpected token: int

I have even tried to use public int, however, this does not work either.

Can you see what I am doing wrong in this?

Thanks,


PS.

I just moved it down further in the code and also noticed that I get the error

"This method must return a result of type int"
