How to do this question in 'Looping until te Value Passes'?

Tell me the answer before you post the answer to me!!! (I did part of it!)

Example.java 
// 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?"));
}

you forgot to add the while statement after the block of instruction inside the do statement. The do..while loop looks like this

do{
//something
}while(condition);

it does not work, the question is : 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.
