ok so i am having a problem with my while loop. it does let me go again it stop a a ceratin point. help would be appreciated.

what's wrong with your while loop?
What certain point are you talking about?

You may use a codetag when posting source codes.
You may just post the specific code where you suspect the cause, not the whole code....

[Eranga]

Specifically describe your question.

Please use the code tags when you post again.

Keep your codes as much as shorter. Very long codes are reading is too boring.

[f_the_cook]

sorry about that the problem im having is that the while loop only runs once and then just stops.

Code:

[Eranga]

Can you tell on which while loop you get the error. I don't have your imported package to run and test.

[f_the_cook]

its the first loop there.



thank you

[Eranga]

Why don't you use the scanner class there. Do you have to avoid it in your implementation?

[f_the_cook]

i honestly have no idea what that means. what is a scanner class?

[masijade]

Read the API docs then, and see if there is a class ther called Scanner.

Edit: Though Scanner is not really meant to be used for user input, although many teachers these days are teaching it as such. It is easy to get user input using it, however, it does not gracefully handle "false" input.

[masijade]

Also, you would be well served breaking down that "run-on" method into several smaller methods.

In simple words, scanner class used to read data in runtime.

Read the Java documentations for more details.
