Please assist in continuation of switch statement.

[Edward Strife]

So right now once the user has inputted the board size, the program ends. I need to continue with each case of the switch. I am not sure how to do this.

    
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
    	//int action;					//variable action used in switch staement
    	in = new Scanner(System.in);
    	
    	Board someBoard=new Board();
    	
    	System.out.println("Please choose from the options below"+
    		 "and enter the number of your choice");
    	System.out.println("1. Set size of board.");
    	System.out.println("2. Place one symbol in board.");
    	System.out.println("3. Place two symbols in board.");
    	System.out.println("4. Insert a symbol at a specific address");
    	System.out.println("5. Print board.");
    	
    	int action=in.nextInt();
    	
    	switch(action)
    	{
    		case 1: someBoard.setSize();
    			break;
    		case 2: someBoard.placeSymbol();
    			break;
    		case 3: someBoard.placeSymbols();
    			break;
    		case 4: someBoard.insertSymbol();
    			break;
    		case 5: someBoard.printBoard();
    		default:
    			System.out.println("Sorry, invalid input. Program will exit now.");
    	}
    	
    }
}

It sounds like you want a loop.

while (not done) {
  get input
  process input
}
