Loops only on the first statement
A little help please..It does only loop on the first conversion which is in "miles".
Code Java:
package If_then_Else;

Re: Loops only on the first statement
Is the aim of this application to pick a conversion type, input a number and then it displays the result?
Why are you using a while loop? Do you want it to do every single conversion in a row?
Please give me a better idea of the functionality of the application.

Yes that's what is supposed to do. If I pressed 1 ( for the computation of miles )then I will input the number of Miles then it'll show the results under miles. After it then it should go back to the main menu which is to choose again that is either option 1 to or 6, but if none is entered then the loop will exit.

Re: Loops only on the first statement
Have you tried playing computer with your code by manually stepping thru it step by step and seeing why it does what it does?
You must go slow and carefully check what each statement does.
What needs to change for the code execution to exit the while loop?
Where is that change made?
