Difficulty with syntax on do while loop. Trying to complete task 2 of 3.

Having difficulty determining what mistake I'm making with the do while loop for task 2.

Example.java 
// I have initialized a java.io.Console for you. It is in a variable named console.


String response;

do {
  response = console.readLine("Do you understand loops?");


while (response.equalsIgnoreCase("No"));   
}

I've edited the code to only show Task 2. I'm still getting syntax errors. Thanks.

Oops! Your while goes after the last closing curly brace, not inside the braces.
