537 PointsNot sure why I'm failing this test...
I'm supposed to be using console.printf to print a formatted string that says "Because you said <response>, you passed the test!" For some reason it fails me and asks if I "used console.printf and to print the formatted response?" The preview doesn't bring up any errors... not sure what it wants from me.
I assume it would like the console.printf text to include the response they typed, but I don't recall learning that yet.
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response;
boolean doesNotUnderstand;
do {
response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? ");
doesNotUnderstand = (response.equalsIgnoreCase("No"));
if (doesNotUnderstand) {
console.printf("Did you learn yet? \n\n");
}
} while (doesNotUnderstand);
console.printf("Because you said <response>, you passed the test!");
