470 PointsDo While loop help
Hi,
Please could someone help me with the task:
"Now continually prompt the user in a do while loop. The loop should continue running as long as the response is No. Don't forget to declare response outside of the do while loop."
I'm very confused as to what I've done wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here's my code:
// 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? ");
if (response.equalsIgnoreCase("No"))
console.printf("Please try again.\n");
} while (response);
