How to take multiple inputs into a list until a certain word is typed?

I'm trying to do a script that will take an integer and add it to a list. It will continue to ask for an integer and add it until you type 'exit'. At that time it will sort the list and give you the lowest and highest integer. I feel like a while loop will do this for me, but I'm unsure on the proper way to do it. The code below is what I have, but it simply stops after I enter the first integer. The main part that is screwing me up is trying to detect when someone types 'exit' and catch any exceptions. List<int> nums = new List<int>(); Console.WriteLine("Enter a number or exit: "); var input = Console.ReadLine().ToLower(); while (input != "exit") { nums.Add(Convert.ToInt32(input)); } nums.Sort(); Console.WriteLine("Your biggest number is -{0}- and your smallest number is -{1}-.", nums[nums.Count - 1], nums[0]);

Use Do...While Loop and Take your inputs inside the loop and check the condition at the end of the do...while loop

Be aware of the fact. That if you this in the playground you need to give all inputs before the start of the run.
