how do I make the program run again after it executes from the console.

Question

How do I make the program run again after it executes from the console? right now it executes successfully but I would like it to run again without close the console which is the only option it does now. Here is the code and below the last } what is shown at the console.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using static System.Console;
using static System.Convert;

namespace flowControl1
{

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
WriteLine("if statement example.");
Write("Enter a character: ");

/* cast the unspecified input datatype to a character datatype */
char inputChar = System.Convert.ToChar(ReadLine());
char[] vowels = { 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u' };

/* here is the flow control */
if (char.ToLower(inputChar) == 'a')
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is a vowel.");
}
else if (char.ToLower(inputChar) == 'e')
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is a vowel.");
}
else if (char.ToLower(inputChar) == 'i')
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is a vowel.");
}
else if (char.ToLower(inputChar) == 'o')
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is a vowel.");
}
else if (char.ToLower(inputChar) == 'u')
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is a vowel. ");
}
else
{
WriteLine("Character " + inputChar + " is not a vowel ");

}
ReadLine();

}

}
}

To automatically close the console when debugging stops, enable Tools->Options->Debugging->Automatically close the console when

Answer 1

use a while loop

bool again = true;
While (again)
{
//the code
}

The loop will run the code between the braces as long as "again" is true.

To stop the code make the variable "again" false.
