Print statement inside if statement not executing, even though the rest of the if statement is

I'm having trouble figuring out why the code below won't print the word "banana" when I enter an invalid operator. I can tell the boolean errorFree still gets set to false because the prints in the switch statement below are never executed, but with an input like "3", "z", "5". I just get a blank output instead of the word I'm looking for. Thanks for taking the time to look at this!

                if (s == list[i])
