String response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? "); boolean isInvalidWord; do { isInvalidWord = (response.equalsIgnoreCase("no")); } while (isInvalidWord);
String response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? ");
boolean isInvalidWord;
do {
isInvalidWord = (response.equalsIgnoreCase("no"));
}
while (isInvalidWord);

11,437 PointsHey, I see a couple of things that could help. Remember that everything in the 'do' portion is what will be repeated. Right now you aren't continually asking the user the question (gather the response inside of the do while loop). Also, it might be case sensitive - 'no' is different from 'No'. And I just use response.equals("No"), if it doesn't specifically ask to ignore the case.
