Hi can you also share all comments? If you want to make do while loop, you should add while (with rule) after closing '}'.

You should also write the condition of this loop. Do something while some condition is true.

String response;
do {
response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops?  ");
} while (response.equals("No"));
