    Default printing factors with 2 classes

    hi, i have a school project that asks for 2 classes to print factors of a number using 2 methods nextFactor and hasMoreFactors it does not specify if they are supposed to be void or not so... so far I'm at this-
    public class chapter7number10
    {
        public chapter7number10(int a)
        {
            factor = a;
        }
        public void hasMoreFactors()
        {
            do
            {
                nextfactor();
                System.out.println("one of the factor's is " + afactor);
            }
            while(afactor < factor);
        }
        public void nextfactor()
        {
            for(countingnumber = currentfactor; factor > countingnumber; countingnumber++)
            {
                currentfactor = currentfactor + countingnumber;
                if(factor % currentfactor == 0)
                {
                    afactor = currentfactor;
                }
            }
        }
        int factor;
        int afactor = 0;
        int currentfactor = 1;
        int countingnumber = 1;
    }
    and the tester -
    import java.util.*;
    public class chapter7number10tester
    {
        public static void main(String args[])
        {
            Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
            System.out.println("What is your factor");
            int a = in.nextInt();
            chapter7number10 tester = new chapter7number10(a);
            tester.hasMoreFactors();
        }
    }
    this is printing an infinite loop of the first factor and i need it to print all the factors excluding 1 and itself then stop, please help.
