    Default How to Exita Run ?

    Hi everyone,

    This is my code so far. I was just wondering would anyone know how to 'end the run' after 10 correct answers are input by the user ? I was thinking maybe a For loop but I'm not too sure..

    import java.util.Scanner;
    import java.util.Random;

    public class Doorknob

    {
    public static void main (String args[])
    {
    int x=0, answer=0;
    int number;


    Random generator=new Random();
    Scanner input=new Scanner (System.in);

    do{
    int randomInt = generator.nextInt(12);
    int randomInt2 = generator.nextInt(12);

    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("What is " + randomInt + " * " + randomInt2 + "?");
    int result = input.nextInt();
    answer = (randomInt*randomInt2);

    if (result == answer)
    {
    System.out.println("Well done");
    }


    else

    while (result != answer)
    {
    System.out.println("Unfortunately, that's not correct. Please try again.");
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("What is " + randomInt + " * " + randomInt2 + "?");
    result = input.nextInt();
    if (result == answer)
    {
    System.out.println("Well done");
    }
    }

    x++;
    }
    while(x <= 5);
    }
    }

    Any help would be good,
    Thanks.

    how to 'end the run' after 10 correct answers
    Use a variable to count the correct answers. When the count gets to 10 'end the run'.

    Can you explain what 'end the run' means?

    Please Edit your post and wrap your code with
    [code=java]
    <YOUR CODE HERE>
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

    Basically can I have a word which I enter, using the scanner class, that will end the program ?


    import java.util.Scanner;
     
     
    public class Doorknob
     
    {
    	public static void main (String args[])
    	{
     
     
     
    	int x=0, answer=0;
    	int number;
     
     
     
    	Scanner input=new Scanner (System.in);
     
    	do{
    		ProjectGenerator c = new ProjectGenerator();
     
     
    		System.out.println("");
    		System.out.println("What is " + c.getRandomInt() + " * " + c.getRandomInt2() + "?");
     
    		while(!input.hasNextInt())
    				{
    				System.out.println("Incorrect. Please enter only digits and try again.");//www.stackoverflow.com
    				System.out.println("");
    				System.out.println("What is " + c.getRandomInt() + " * " + c.getRandomInt2() + "?");
    				input.next();
    				}
     
     
     
    		int result = input.nextInt();
    		answer = (c.getRandomInt()*c.getRandomInt2());
     
    			if (result == answer)
    				{
    				System.out.println("Well done");
    				}
     
     
    			else
     
    				while (result != answer)
    				{
    				System.out.println("Unfortunately, that's not correct. Please try again.");
    				System.out.println("");
    				System.out.println("What is " + c.getRandomInt() + " * " + c.getRandomInt2() + "?");

    				result = input.nextInt();
    					if (result == answer)
    					{
    					System.out.println("Well done");
    					}
     
     
    				}
     
     
     
     
    		x++;
    		}
    	while(x <= 5);
    	}
    }

    end the program
    Calling the System class's exit()method will end the program.
    Compare the user's String input using one of the String class's methods. If there is a match, call the exit() method.

    Use an if statement

    how I would go about doing that ?
    can you explain the steps the code should take to "do that"?
    I'm not sure what you mean.
