having issue with user input and using while loop

[barqcider]

hi all, im new to java in general and this issue has stumped me. i basically need to get a user to enter any number and multiply it upto 10 (meanin num *1, all the way to 10). so far i gotten so user is prompted to enter the number, but i cant get it to loop. i did declare the variable num as an int.

this is what i did:

System.out.println("\n\nenter a number");
num = readit.nextInt();

i did sum= num * count
count++, but when command prompts, i enter a number and it doestn multiply it like i wanted. any help is appreciated.

i cant get it to loop

See the tutorial: The for Statement (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language > Language Basics)
and The while and do-while Statements (The Java™ Tutorials > Learning the Java Language > Language Basics)

public static void main (String[]args)
{
Scanner readit = new Scanner(System.in);
int count = 1;
int num =0;
int sum =0;
while (count < 11)
{
num = 7;
sum = num *count;
System.out.println(num+" times " + count + " is " + sum);
count = count + 1;
}// end while for part one.

System.out.println("\n\nenter a number");
num = readit.nextInt();
while ( count < 11)
{

sum = num * count;
System.out.println(num + " times " + count + " is : " + sum);
count++;
}


}//end class
}//end main

thats what i got so far. it just keeps exiting out when i enter a number. i know im missing a piece
