Wrote to this code to break out of a while loop. Doesn't seem to be working and I cannot find any error with it.
String usercont = lat.next(); if (usercont == "yes"){ System.out.println("Program is now exiting"); break; } else if (usercont == "no"){ continue; }

The issue could be that you are using == for strings.
== does not compare equality for objects, it compares memory location. If you are taking input this could be an issue.
Use equals(String) instead.
Example/
if(userCont.equals("no"))

Many possible issues... It's hard to tell without the full code, but here are some ideas:
- play it safe - compare strings with the equals method (I'd bet on that!)
- uppercase/lowercase isn't checked
- what should continue do? I can't see no loop...

@Rrestoring faith you taught me this when i first started đ

For String use "equals".
== checks for reference similarity, equals value similarity

Followed the same procedure with int and it worked perfectly but having some challenges with String
