java - What am I doing wrong in this code? It's supposed to run indefinitely, but only loops twice -

i have final string array @ top labeled jokes. program ask if user wants hear joke, tell user joke, , ask if hear another. of right now, program ask if user wants hear joke, tell them joke, ask them if hear another, tell them second joke, , stop. program indefinitely opposed twice. or advice appreciated, i'm still beginner java.

    random generator = new random();     input = new scanner(system.in);     system.out.println("want hear joke?");       string response = "yes";      while (response.equalsignorecase("yes")) {         response = input.nextline();         int yourjoke = generator.nextint(jokes.length);          system.out.println(jokes[yourjoke]);          system.out.println("pretty funny! want hear another?");         response = input.nextline();       }  } 

}

• you should call input.nextline() once inside of while loop.
• why ask input before while loop if you're going ignore it, if you're going force response "yes" regardless of user's choice?

one solution in pseudocode:

initialize scanner initialize random hearanother = false  prompt: want hear joke? input hearanother = input ignore case "yes" if hearanother   tell joke             prompt: want hear joke?       input       hearanother = input ignore case "yes"       if hear         tell random joke       end if     while hearanother true     end if
