PORepeat Method In While Loop

copied!<p>I cant seem to get my main method working as it should 100%. It is good but I need fix a looping problem. </p> <p>My main goal was to get the program to repeat method pathCalc() once user enters any number >=1 and to end the program when user enters 0. However, when user enters >= 1 to repeat the program, program does repeat, but when it gets to the point to ask user if to repeat or exit again, and user enters 0 to exit, the program repeats method pathCalc() instead of exiting. </p> <p>How do I get this to work after repeating method, so that the user enters >= 1 to repeat method or 0 to exit?</p> <pre><code> import java.util.Scanner; public class AssignmentArrays{ static int[] data = new int [6]; public static void getIDs(){ Scanner seg = new Scanner(System.in); int[] data = new int [6]; data[0] = 0; data[1] = 0; data[2] = 0; data[3] = 0; data[4] = 0; data[5] = 0; /* Segment values */ System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 0:"); data[0] = seg.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 1:"); data[1] = seg.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 2::"); data[2] = seg.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 3:"); data[3] = seg.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 4:"); data[4] = seg.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter cost for segment 5:"); data[5] = seg.nextInt(); } public static void pathCalc(){ /* Path inputs */ Scanner node1 = new Scanner(System.in); int pathCost; System.out.println("Enter ID of segment 0 of path:"); int node1value = node1.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter ID of segment 1 of path:"); int node2value = node1.nextInt(); System.out.println("Enter ID of segment 2 of path:"); int node3value = node1.nextInt(); /* Path cost calculation */ pathCost = data[node1value] + data[node2value] + data[node3value]; System.out.println("The cost of the trip is: $" + pathCost); } public static void main(String[] args){ getIDs(); pathCalc(); System.out.println("Enter 0 to exit or any other number"+ " to evaluate another path:"); int choice; choice = end.nextInt(); while(choice != 0){ getIDs(); pathCalc(); System.out.println("Enter 0 to exit or any other number"+ " to evaluate another path:"); choice = end.nextInt(); } } } </code></pre>
