490 PointsWhy is is telling me this: Did you use console.printf and to write out the formatted string with the response?
This is for the answer to the question
Finally, using console.printf print out a formatted string that says "Because you said <response>, you passed the test!"
String response; boolean evaluateResponse; do { response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? "); evaluateResponse = response.equalsIgnoreCase("No"); console.printf("Because you said",response,"you passed the test"); } while (evaluateResponse);

20,884 PointsSorry, I cannot read your coding, as it is not been using, the already given, code formatter, I generally, do not give answers, but, I had to give, since am unable to read your code
String response = "";
do {
response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? ");
}while(response == "No");

490 PointsString response;
boolean evaluateResponse;
do
{ response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? ");
evaluateResponse = response.equalsIgnoreCase("No");
}
while (evaluateResponse);
console.printf("Because you said" + response +"you passed the test");
// * It is complaining about console.printf("Because you said" + response +"you passed the test");
The request was:
Using console.printf print out a formatted string that says "Because you said <response>, you passed the test!" *//

hope this helps
