<@&987246399047479336> please have a look, thanks.

#

sooo, whats the issue?

#

what is ur code doing? what are u entering? what are u expecting instead?

#

can u please copy paste the full console dialog or show a screenshot

#

i want to see the input and output

#

i need to see what ur code printed

#

and what u entered exactly at which point

#

so i can visually follow the flow and see where it went bonkers

#

i have a suspicion but want to be sure first

#

okay

#

so look at what ur code is doing

# 
if (ch != 'e') {
  break ;
}
#

if the user entered not-e, break

#

u entered not-e

#

so this is executed

#

break ends the surrounding loop

#

so ...

#

the whole loop logic with the attempts is flawed

#

the logic doesnt make much sense like that

#

u have to step back and rewrite the entire loop/attempt logic

#

it doesnt work at all like that

#

can u explain please what u want ur code to do first?

#

okay. so why the loop stuff?

#

what u just described doesnt need loops

#

please explain me that aspect of ur intended logic

#

yeah but a loop makes little sense in the description u just gave

#

as there is nothing to repeat

#

so possibly u forgot to explain an aspect of ur intended logic?

#

such as "i want the user to be able to repeat this forever until they enter e to exit"

#

okay but where is the repeat part? what should it repeat?

#

right now all ur explaining is a one-time thing

#

user enters one thing, the program says something and then it ends

#

thats what u just described so far

#

u havent said "when the user did ..., it should repeat"

@dusky juniper now your are learning java yep?

silver nacelle
#

i feel like ur not understanding me

#

what ur explaining so far doesnt require any loop

#

in fact, a loop makes zero sense in what ur describing

#

and the "e to exit" makes no sense either then

#

there is nothing to exit in what u just described

#

i cant help u if u dont explain ur intention properly

#

lets say i enter 1, what should ur program do now?

#

u want it to say its positive

#

and now, whats next?

#

the program should end?

#

or should it repeat and ask for another input?

#

should the program only ask for input once or multiple times?

#

so. u do want it to repeat asking for inputs

#

u didnt say that before yet

#

yeah but we have to step back

#

ur current code makes no sense, theres multiple bugs in it

#

we have to rewrite it

#

so we have to first step back and clarify what u even want to achieve

#

so. u want ur code to ask for input. for example a number. then it says sth about the number. and it all repeats forever

#

now, when the user enters e, it would end normally

#

when the user enters bullshit like x, should it also end the entire program or repeat asking for input as it wasnt e?

#

so x and e should behave the same way?

#

just that x would also give some form of error message?

#

okay, but again, x and e behave in the same way as in that they print out a (possibly different) text and then end the program
