dont know the code

Hassan, this clue should help you get past this step in the code challenge. If you are still having trouble, let us know what code you are trying and where you are stuck and we'll try to help! :)

amitsanchit 's sample code above should give you a template of what to try. Paste in here the exact code you are trying with specific details about what you don't understand and we can go from there.

You're on the right track here. #1, don't forget that String needs a capital S.

You want to put your 2nd line in the body of a do/while loop. In the example above, replace //prompt code(s); with your line of code.

Your 3rd line will be the while line in the do/while loop.

Try it out and paste your new code in here if you continue to have trouble. :)

Here's a link to the challenge for anyone who visits this page later.

not working

Right, you only addressed the first thing that needs to be fixed. You need to use the do/while format from the video and the earlier hint above for the rest of your code. Read my previous hint line by line and make sure you are putting the pieces in the right place. Here's a further hint: After the String response; line, start your do/while loop by simply putting do on its own line:

String response;
do {

The structure of the do/while loop needs to be like this:

do {
  // Code to execute in the loop
} while(condition);

Your condition is correct, so your shell should look like this:

do {
  // Code to execute in the loop
} while(response.equalsIgnoreCase("no");

The code you want to execute is simply the line from step 1 that sets response from the console, which you had correct earlier as: response=console.readLine("do you understand while loops");

Remember that the syntax is really important here. I've pushed my hint even further below (and added line numbers) and will walk through the code line by line:

1. Declare the response variable as a container for String data.
2. Start the do/while loop with the do keyword and opening brace.
3. Lines 3 and 4 are hint comments that should be replaced by your own code. You just need one line of code between the curly braces (your earlier line that sets response).
4. Another comment line
5. End the block of code that is executing in the loop with the closing brace. Add the while condition with while(condition);

01 String response;
02 do {
03   // Code to execute in the loop (in other words - set 'response' here
04   // with the same code you used in step 1 to set 'response'.)
05 } while(response.equalsIgnoreCase("no");

Between this and the video you should definitely be able to figure this one out! :)

We try really hard to not give the code straight out. :) My last comment is super close to the answer, so if you follow along closely you'll get there!

Hassan Osman I refinished the code challenge so i have a better understanding of the objectives. If there's any problem you are encountering or things you don't quite understand, please state em :)
