Mayo :
I am having some trouble with this small segment. Can do-while loops only run using boolean variables? I am trying to ask the "user" to enter "0" or "1" so that the program will either loop or end.
Error message:
Chapter4Practice.java:23: error: incompatible types: int cannot be converted to boolean } while (choice = 1); ^ 1 error
My code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Chapter4Practice
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int choice, num1, num2;
String input;
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
do {
System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
num1 = sc.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter another number: ");
num2 = sc.nextInt();
System.out.println("The sum is " + (num1 + num2));
System.out.println("Do you want to do this again?");
System.out.println("(1 = yes, 0 = no)");
sc.nextLine();
choice = sc.nextInt();
} while (choice = 1);
} //End Main
} //End Class

Short answer: Yes, you can have simple or complex statements inside your do-while but at the end it will have to evaluate to either true or false
Also your statement should be == ( single = means assign, where == is evaluate)
