Continue a while loop after exception

Question

i have this piece of code. I wanted to return to the beginning of loop and ask for user input again. However, it always loops without stopping to ask for input. What is wron

Answer 1

This should throw and catch the exception and the continue command should send you back to your while loop. you need either a continue or a flag to tell your while when it stops being true.

while(true)
{
try 
{
   int choice = input.nextInt();
   throw new InputMismatchException();

} 
catch (InputMismatchException e)
{
continue;
}
}
