trying to print out a statement after a loop that is not working
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response;
do { response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops?");
}while(response == "No");
console.printf("Becuase you said Yes, you passed the test!");

4,254 PointsYou're supposed to format the string to include the user's response:
console.print("Because you said <input>, you passed the test!", /* replace <input> with a string regex and enter the variable after this comma */);
Also, you're incorrectly comparing strings. You shouldn't use "==" instead you should use the string method "equals()" or "equalsIgnoreCase()"
response.equalsIgnoreCase("no");
