How do I concatenate the user's response of "yes" to the message printed to the console?

Made a switch from JavaScript to Java. How would a programmer enter the user's response to the message printed in the console?

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 while loops");
      if(response.equalsIgnoreCase("yes")){
        console.printf("Because you said" + response + ", you passed the test!");
        System.exit(0);
     }
} while(response.equalsIgnoreCase("no"));
