return; statement

[fallout87]

So this is how my code goes:

main()
call menu()

menu()
if answer = .....
1stMethod()
if answer = .....
2ndMethod()

1stMethod()
//statements
return; //want to return to the main so it can call menu() again but it just quits the program

2ndMethod()
//statements
return; //want to return to the main so it can call menu() again but it just quits the program

It would help if you posted real code and described its output, as well as the output you want. It need not (and probably should not) be your real code - what would help would be a cut down version that just illustrates the logic.

Oracle's Tutorial section on Control Flow Statements may help. But without seeing code, that's just a guess. Also note that, unlike the flow constructs described there, "return" takes you from one method to another, different, one.
