While you are waiting for getting help, here are some tips to improve your experience:

Code is much easier to read if posted with syntax highlighting and proper formatting.

If nobody is calling back, that usually means that your question was not well asked and hence nobody feels confident enough answering. Try to use your time to elaborate, provide details, context, more code, examples and maybe some screenshots. With enough info, someone knows the answer for sure.

Don't forget to close your thread using the command </help-thread close:1027500463647621170> when your question has been answered, thanks.

whenever i add continue or break

in the if statement it errors

how do i make it so the 2 breaks it out of the loop

[wise orchid]

Currently, your "while" condition requires userInput to be equal to 1, 2, 3, and 4, which is not possible.
I think, to get the result you want, you need to replace each != with ==

[fickle wagon]

do i need .equal?

[wise orchid]

Since you are dealing with ints which are primitive, no, == will suffice. With strings or other objects, you would.

NO LUCK

no luck*

sorry

Ur while condition is wrong

It has to be that user input is none of 1 2 3 4

Also u can replace the if else and do while with a single while

so

still does not work

[tulip dock]

your if condition is different in the while loop

[worldly heart]

you have to use && in the while loop not ||

because !(A || B) <=> !A & !B

[fickle wagon]

so what should i change the while loop condtion to?

[worldly heart]

change the ors to &&s

and remove the if else bit completely

replace the do while with a while loop

that removes the need of using an if else

[fickle wagon]

can you explain why this works

[worldly heart]

see

we have the condition that user input can be is 1 or 2 or 3 or 4

and we need to negate that

so if i were to ask u

give me a number that is ≠ 1, ≠2, ≠ 3 and ≠ 4

[fickle wagon]

ohh

i see

thanls

works now

and i made it a while loop

[worldly heart]

yes, does it work now?

[fickle wagon]

yup ty
