Making a text file work for an array

Question

hello i am trying to get this text file to work with this program but i keep getting the same output. Zero will be for exit. In the text file the first line tells you how elements will be in the array. the second line are the numbers in each array position. the program is suppose to search for 1 in the array of elements. here is an example of the text file
5
2 3 1 4 5

    import java.util.*;
   import java.io.*;
    public class Array{
       public static void main(String[] args){
         try{
            Scanner stdin = new Scanner(System.in);
              Scanner fin = new Scanner(new File("array.txt"));
            int positionsOfArray = fin.nextInt();
            while (positionsOfArray != 0){
               int[] elements ={fin.nextInt()};
               for (int i=0; i<elements.length; i++){
                  int searchingOfUnity = elements;
if (searchingOfUnity == 1){
System.out.println("the unity is at position " + searchingOfUnity);
catch(FileNotFoundException e){}

I think what you mean to do is:
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Array{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        try{
            Scanner fin = new Scanner(new File("array.txt"));
            int positionsOfArray = fin.nextInt();
            while (positionsOfArray != 0){
                for (int i=0; i<positionsOfArray; i++){
                    int searchingOfUnity = fin.nextInt();
                    if (searchingOfUnity == 1){
                        System.out.println("The unity is at position " + i);
                positionsOfArray = fin.nextInt();
        catch(FileNotFoundException e){}
}
