Encouraging you (and showing you how) to think through solving this yourself.
Problem statement: It (the second loop) works the first time but when it comes to that point again after looping it won't loop anymore.
Inspect the code with the purpose of the second while loop in mind, answer the following questions:
1. It is supposed to loop when . . . . ? (answer the question - it's your code, you should know - the answer could even be a code comment).
2. So the loop control variable, loop2, should be <blank> when the loop should execute and <blank> when the loop should not execute. (fill in the <blank>s with the correct answer.)
3. When the loop runs and correct answers are given, the loop control variable, loop2, is set to <blank>. (fill in the <blank> with the correct answer.)
4. Considering the answer to number 3, what must happen in order for the loop to run again?
5. Considering the answer to number 4, what is the fix for the stated problem, "It (the second loop) works the first time but when it comes to that point again after looping it won't loop anymore?"
