Using Loops for prompts with If/Else/Esif
- by Dante
I started with:
puts "Hello there, and what's your favorite number?"
favnum = gets.to_i
puts "Your favorite number is #{favnum}?" " A better favorite number is #{favnum + 1}!"
puts "Now, what's your favorite number greater than 10?"
favnumOverTen = gets.to_i
if favnumOverTen < 10
puts "Hey! I said GREATER than 10! Try again buddy."
else
puts "Your favorite number great than 10 is #{favnumOverTen}?"
puts "A bigger and better number over 10 is #{favnumOverTen * 10}!"
puts "It's literally 10 times better!"
end
That worked fine, but if the user entered a number less than 10 the program ended.
I want the user to be prompted to try again until they enter a number greater than 10.
Am I supposed to do that with a loop?
Here's what I took a swing at, but clearly it's wrong:
puts "Hello there, and what's your favorite number?"
favnum = gets.to_i
puts "Your favorite number is #{favnum}?" " A better favorite number is #{favnum + 1}!"
puts "Now, what's your favorite number greater than 10?"
favnumOverTen = gets.to_i
if favnumOverTen < 10
loop.do
puts "Hey! I said GREATER than 10! Try again buddy."
favnumOverTen = gets.to_i
until favnumOverTen > 10
else
puts "Your favorite number great than 10 is #{favnumOverTen}?"
puts "A bigger and better number over 10 is #{favnumOverTen * 10}!"
puts "It's literally 10 times better!"
end
