Hi, I have made a program to calculate the points required to get into college. The last part of the program that I cannot seem to get working is the
while loop which is intended to repeat the question of what the "int gradeOne" value is, specified by input. The value needs to be H1, or H2 etc right up to H8 or O1 to O8 but the while statement keeps going in an eternal loop no matter what value I enter into it when run. I will write in bold where the problem is. Thanks for any help!
