Thread: Break/Continue example doesn't work with ConsoleReader

class BreakExample
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        System.out.println("(Please enter a number from 1 to 6)");
        ConsoleReader console = new ConsoleReader(System.in);
        int num = console.readInt();
        System.out.println("(Please enter another number, from 1 to 8)");
        ConsoleReader console2 = new ConsoleReader(System.in);
        int num2 = console2.readInt();
 
        for(int num = 1; num  < 6; num++)
        {
 
            for(int num2 = 1; num2 < 8; num2++)
            {
             if(num == 4 && num2 == 1)
             {
                 System.out.println("keep the loop going when the numbers are: " +num+ " and " + num2);
                 continue;
                }
 
                if( num == 5 && num2 == 3 )
 
             {
                System.out.println( "Break the loop when the numbers are: " +num+ " and " + num2);
                break;
            }   
                System.out.println("Continue with the loop when the numbers are: " +num+ "and " + num2);
            }
        }
    }
}

The user input with this program doesn't work. I'm having a problem with the variables that I can't seem to figure out. Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Sorry, the error is related to this line:

for(int num = 1; num < 6; num++)

the error is "variable num is already defined in method main(java.lang.string{})

variable num is already defined in method main(java.lang.String[])

That is the exact error, with for(int num = 1; num < 6; num++) being highlighted.

class BreakExample2
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        System.out.println("(Please enter a number from 1 to 6)");
        ConsoleReader console = new ConsoleReader(System.in);
        System.out.println("(Please enter another number, from 1 to 8)");
        ConsoleReader console2 = new ConsoleReader(System.in);
 
 
        for(int num = console.readInt(); num  < 6; num++)
        {
 
            for(int num2 = console2.readInt(); num2 < 8; num2++)
            {
             if(num == 4 && num2 == 1)
             {
                 System.out.println("keep the loop going when the numbers are: " +num+ " and " + num2);
                 continue;
                }
 
                if( num == 5 && num2 == 3 )
 
             {
                System.out.println( "Break the loop when the numbers are: " +num+ " and " + num2);
                break;
            }   
                System.out.println("Continue with the loop when the numbers are: " +num+ "and " + num2);
            }
        }
    }
}

I tried this, and the program compiles, but doesn't run as its supposed to. Still can't wrap my head around the variable errors.
