How to get set values from do while loop into next function?

[Wendell Hatcher]

My question is about the increment I am asking how do you return data from the do while loop that is suppose to be set in each value.

the totalSales inside of my do while loop should have data set when it comes out of the loop it does not save the data into the totalSales or totalItems values.

// The system print out values are empty.
System.out.printf(salesID + " you entered a total of: " + totalItems + "With a total sales of $%15.2f" + totalSales);

I am trying to return data from a freaky do while or the if statement loop and it will not return the items I set why?


// yesno to n for first loop through.

do {
System.out.println("Welcome Sales ID: " + salesID + " please enter the samsung TV sold: \n");
samsungProduct = scanValue.next();
System.out.println("Please enter your total TV sales amounts individually for today \n");
singleSale = scanValue.nextDouble();
totalSales = totalSales + singleSale;
totalItems = totalItems++;
System.out.println("Do you want to enter another sales total(Y/N): \n ");
yesNo = scanValue.next();

} while (!yesNo.equalsIgnoreCase("N"));

// get the items set inside of the do while loop.

// The system print out values are empty.
System.out.printf(salesID + " you entered a total of: " + totalItems + "With a total sales of $%15.2f" + totalSales);

totalItems = totalItems++;

that line is wrong. you should just do

totalItems++;

sigh...now that I've wasted my time answering this question, I find you've already asked it.
