Why doesn't this command line in Java Basics work?

String response; boolean isWrongAnswer; do { response = console.readLine("Do you understand do while loops? "); isWrongAnswer = (response.equals("No")); if (isWrongAnswer) } while(isWrongAnswer);

Hi Gabriel!

That should all work fine apart from you won't need the if statement down at the bottom as that condition is already covered by your loop.

Let me know if you have any more problems!
