do-while loop question

sorry for not being clear, To start, this application should display a prompt dialog box like the one below that gets a number grade from 0 through 100. Then, it should display an alert dialog box that displays the letter grade for that number. for deriving the letter grade it like A 90-100 B 80-89 C 70-79 D 60-69 F < 60 and by using if-statement with the loop should get to display the number and letter grade, also doing the validation to make sure the number is valid from 0 through 100. and 999 for exiting the loop. hope i am clear

Hi Fadi,

You should post additional info in your original question here: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/can-you-please-show-me-how-to-get-the-number-of-grade-and-the-letter-grade-using-dowhile-loop-like-a-10090 rather than post the question again.

Also, you should be making some kind of attempt at the problem.

OK - that's a really bizarre way to generate a letter grade... Are you sure you don't mean something like this: 

var valid=false;
var grade;

//prompt until user gives a valid response
do {
  //prompt user for number grade... grade=prompt("Enter numeric grade")
  //validate if number grade is number and between 0 and 100
} while (!valid)

if (grade >=90)  {
  alert("A");
} else if (grade >=80) {
 alert("B");
} //continue else...if
