Question

I have this code:

Scanner sc = null;
 sc = new Scanner(System.in);
 System.out.println("Your final answer is? (Y/N)");
 String answer = sc.next();
 if(answer.equals("Y"){
//do sth
}
 else if(answer.equals("N")){
//do sth else
}

In case the person does not input “Y” or “N” I want the question to be asked again until the answer is one of those two. Is here a way i can do it?

Answer 1

Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
String answer = null;
boolean ask_again = true;
do {
     System.out.println("Your final answer is? (Y/N)");
     answer = sc.next();
     if(answer.equals("Y")){
       //do something when Yes
       ask_again = false;
     }
     else if(answer.equals("N")){
       //do something when No
       ask_again = false;
     }
     else {
       ask_again = true; 
     }
} while(ask_again == true);
