Question

So far I have written choice as a string but I need to write it to accept int instead of string. The user has to enter 1, 2, 3 and if they enter 1 or 2 the program should continue but if the user enters 3 the program ends.

normally I write the choice as

    String choice = "y";
    while (choice.equalsIgnoreCase("y"))
        {

Is there a way to write the code similar to that? I found a way using if statements but that screws up the rest of my code so I’m trying to find a way around that.

Thanks,

Answer 1

it would be better to to this with a so called switch construct

int choice = readInt();
switch(choice){
    case 1:
    case 2:
        // your code
        break;
    case 3:
        // exit code
        break;

}
