Array of Linked List Help

Question

I am fairly new to Java, and Linked Lists. Can you tell me how I can fix my code? Why does my code print infinite "3" s. That is all I am trying to do is create a linked list and put that linked list into index 2 of the array. In the loop, I am setting up a whole bunch on null Node's, is it even possible to link all these nodes together in that same loop? If something does not make sense, I will try to elaborate. I will eventually impliment an insert method in the Node class, are there any pointers on how to implement it? What are the special cases I need to be looking for when implementing the insert method?

            anArray[i] = new Node();
            l = new Node(i);
            l.setLink(l);
        anArray[2] = l;         
        while(anArray[2] != null){
            System.out.println(anArray[2].dataInNode());
            anArray[2] = anArray[2].next;
}

Answer 1

l = new Node(i);
l.setLink(l);The node l is created in line one, in line two a link is created from l to l. In other words here is the presence of your infinite loop which is magnified in the following piece of code:
anArray[2] = l;         
while(anArray[2] != null){
  System.out.println(anArray[2].dataInNode());
  anArray[2] = anArray[2].next;
