Hello!

First time poster here!

This is the code:

Im doing a very simple math program. It takes two int values and adds them together in a method (not shown above). But when I get the question if I want to continue, no matter what I write, I always get the "Good Bye!"...whats missing? I know it has something to do with the String, as I have tested this using INT (I do have a while loop)...

Anyone?

Because you don't compare strings with "==", but with .equals.
