Simple Infinite loop help

I have the following display() method for a circular queue, but I can't find the reason why it goes into an infiti loop when rear is 2 and front is 3 when the MAX_SIZE is 5. ```java public void display() { System.out.println("Front: " + front); System.out.println("Rear: " + rear); System.out.println("Array : "); System.out.println(" : "); int Cfront = front; if(front==-1) Cfront++; int i=0; for(i = Cfront; i != rear;i++){ if(i==MAX_SIZE){ System.out.println("true"); i=0; } System.out.println(queue[i]); } System.out.println(queue[i]); }

Its because you are in each interation setting i = Cfront i = 3 3 is not equal to 2 (front) Inc i by 1 now i is 4 4 is not equal to 2 And around we go… If i then hits MAX_SIZE you set i to 0 But then in the forloop you start by setting i = Cfront, writing over your zero.
