[headlice1]

Hi

i know a while loop isn't much of a problem but when i run the program it just dosn't work can any one help me please :D

Here is the code:

System.out.println("Please enter the room type as below: ");
System.out.print("| bed | study | conference | :");
roomType = inVar();
 
while (!roomType.equals("bed") || !roomType.equals("study")
        || !roomType.equals("conference")
        || !roomType.equals("Bed") || !roomType.equals("Study")
        || !roomType.equals("Conference")) {
 
System.out.println("Please enter the room type as below: ");
System.out.print("| bed | study | conference | :");
roomType = inVar();
}

The code just runs through the loop all he time.

Whatever you type, at least one of the parts of that or '||' expression will be true.
Better make that a logical and '&&' operation.

Lo, behold! A duel?

I will be with you shortly,
and then you wont be with me.

Lo and behold indeed Sir; I'd suggest you pick a fish and then we'll do a
Fish Slapping Dance.
