First declare a variable called response that is a String. Then set response equal to console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops?");
This will get you started:
//Declare a String variable named response, then initialize it using double quotes
String response;
response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops?"); // "yes" or "no" is stored in response variable
If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
