*[SOLVED]* Java Basics - Final Code Challenge (task 3 of 3)

// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.
String response = console.readLine("Do you understand while loops?:  ");
boolean isInvalidWord;
 do {
   response = console.readLine("no");
   isInvalidWord = (response.equalsIgnoreCase("no"));
  if (isInvalidWord) {
    console.printf("NO? Keep going until you do!  \n\n");
  }
 } while(isInvalidWord);

I seem to be having trouble with this portion of the final challenge. He is asking me to "use console.printf to print out a formatted string that says "Because you said <response>, you passed the test!"", but I'm not understanding how to write this in. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great!

Sorry to cloud the community with a useless post but, I did figure it out.
