Infinite Loop Solution
I'm not going to say there's a "right" way to rewrite the code. The key is to make the program function the same but to let the code leave the while loop logically, rather than making a sudden jump. If your code did that then well done!
Here's my version:
public class InfiniteLoopRewrite {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//boolean variable to determine if the loop //should end
boolean shouldLoopEnd = false;
//generate a random number
int targetNumber = (int) (Math.random() * 10);
System.out.println ("The target number is: " + targetNumber);
//no longer an infinite loop..
while (shouldLoopEnd == false)
{
//generate a random number to try //and match the target number
int guessNumber = (int) (Math.random() * 10);
System.out.println ("The loop guesses: " + guessNumber);
//check to see if the guess is correct
if (guessNumber == targetNumber) {
shouldLoopEnd = true;
}
else
{
// round the loop we go again
System.out.println ("Let's try again..");
}
}
System.out.println ("Woo hoo! We have a match!");
}
} //end class
