I don`t seem to find the mistake. Maybe someone can help me out :)

"Now continually prompt the user in a do while loop. The loop should continue running as long as the response is No. Don't forget to declare response outside of the do while loop."

I think I had it but an error popped out...

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.equalsIngoreCase("Yes")){
    console.printf("Thats actually good");
      System.exit(0);
    }
   }while (response.equalsIgnoreCase("No"));

You don't need to do anything inside the loop if the answer is "yes". If you remove the whole if statement it should pass.
